INSPIRATION - Paddlewheeler

Pretty neat. Not rocket science, but about anyone should be able to look at the picture and make a decent version. If you worked at it a bit, you could even make one that would float nicely, even power it. JOAT Rudeness is the weak man's imitation of strength. - Eric Hoffer |

It was a piece of 1x8 pine with a small square "cabin". The paddlewheel was powered by a rubber band. Yes, it did float. I thought it was the neatest thing in the world. Stuff like that makes me miss him a lot. Thanks for the memory. Bob |
