Tomm Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 That is coooool. Doesn't look like it'd be very stable in the water though, have you fallen in yet? Good work :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCOTTY___ Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 No it doesn't float in water, the pictures are photoshopped. :P :P ← He cheated :- I would take it for a thrashing in the water. But im a rubbish swimmer so we'd need a life guard as company :o Scotty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomN Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Is Ali C having a nose bleed?? :P Bees Knees on the machine though :- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 I think if you put some paddles on the spokes somehow then it would work better in the water and not impede it on the road. Just a thought. Looks good BTW Thanks, Callum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Is Ali C having a nose bleed?? :P Bees Knees on the machine though :- ← narr, thats just my tash.

Trebor Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 You genious, that's awesome! Is it possible to steer it when it's in water? The Ali C and Ducks pictures are cracking :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IOLO Posted May 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 thanks again for everyones great comments,, im dam chuffed now !! (Y) and i think the steering would work in the water,, but i dont think you can really get fast enough for it to take effect nicely..

Tomm Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 and i think the steering would work in the water,, but i dont think you can really get fast enough for it to take effect nicely.. ← It would be better if you had a rudder behind the thrust. Helps it steer because some of the water (that is being pushed back by the thrust) is forced to the side, like little sideways thrusters. So you basically get much better steering in water. Dunno if you could stick a rudder on easily though. Either way it's very cool (Y) Was there any reason for making it? Or just because you can?

Twilite Posted May 6, 2005 Report Share Posted May 6, 2005 That's brilliant. (Y) Great idea, and it looks really well executed! I wasn't sure if it'd float, but the pics make it obvious it does. Great work. It says "latest creation", what else have you made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spunkey_monkey_boy Posted May 6, 2005 Report Share Posted May 6, 2005 iolo will give you a full list no doubt but he made his trials frame, he built a road bike (that he then snapped) he's got a trike, a 6ft high bike and a shed load of other home made wonders (Y) i think we should have a iolo'd gallery for pics of all his mean machines...
