Website of the day May 29, 2012

Website of the day is doable and you will be the coolest dad or mom in
the neighborhood if you pull it off.  It’s a link to a specific page
on the geekdad website

http://www.wired.com/geekdad/2012/05/ff_hovercraft/

It’s step by step plans as well as a video demonstration of how to
build you own hovercraft.  (That is a vehicle that floats on air)

All you need is

•       1 sheet of ¾-inch plywood
(get the cheapest you can find; quality is not an issue)
•       1 leaf blower (gas or electric)
•       1 heavy-duty shower curtain
•       2 rolls of duct tape
•       1 lid from a gallon paint can
•       Foam pipe insulation
•       Assorted screws
Follow the steps and you will be floating around the neighborhood.
