/diy/ - Do It Yourself

excuse the MSpaint graphics hare, but this is basically it. Side view of the hovercraft on top, bottom view on bottom. Air is blown in by a leaf blower through the top of the plywood, and inflates the tarp into what looks like half of a donut. The air is then pushed out of the holes in the tarp that circle the paint can lid. This creates an area of pressurized air underneath the center of the hovercraft. When that air bleeds out underneath the tarp, it separates you from the ground, and you can float on your merry way. the paint can lid just acts as a large washer that keeps the tarp from ripping around where it is attached to the plywood in the center. The tarp is attached to the top of the plywood with staples and some duct tape, as you can see in the original screenshot.
