Damn, missed it how well did it work?


Only a toy but it was used on a gym stadium floor so it worked very
well indeed. If you have ever thought of making one of those flying
model planes, this is a cheaper and much more satisfying alternative.

You can get a piece of visquene off any building site skip (enough to
cover the board) -it was less than 4 by 2 ft. The only expense was the
leaf blower. Noisy and petrol driven but I was very tempted.

Any grit on an uneven road and you will have problems. But then you can
get over them with more visquene. I wonder if a three way hinged board
and draught excluder brushes would be more of an off roader. Perhaps
with a Briggs and Stratton racing motor?

It really has possibilities. (Mainly for the chancellor of the
exchequer if it ever takes off, although I could see them replacing
shopping trolleys in Milton Keynes any decade now.)

You can get to it via their website if you have java and other scripts
enabled. Also, if you are quick enough, you can catch the repeat at
noon today Channel Five.
