Title: Got Wood?
Post by: Baitman on May 23, 2015, 07:41:41 AM

     This video my daughter made just popped up on You Tube.  It's about 6 -7 years ago I built this pedal drive contraption.    Funny how one idea  can lead to another. 
   This was the first time launching , immediately discovered we had a problem with the timing belts jumping,,, 
               Enough talk.

   Alex,    Yes, about two years  " pre-Raptor "     Got so many comments  " You should make those" that  I finally did.    Stumbled a few times along the way...   gotta learn to crawl before you can walk.   :smt044

 Planning on taking it to the " Woodies on the Wharf "  ( Santa Cruz ) next month.     I'll have the only Woodie that's been UNDER the wharf.   :smt005

    Appreciate the compliments !  :smt006
