  1. Skywheel

    This is a ride I started back in 2015. Projects like this sit for years collecting dust in boxes, sort of packed in segments. I pulled it out and fixed some of the problems it had, supports and wheels. It's a double ferris wheel inspired by a ride of the same name by Chance Rides, the older brother of the zipper.

    This particular model was inspired by a K'Nex model by Greg Nuse. It uses micro chains to drive the two wheels. A basic fixed axle setup turns the wheels when the boom is turned. It's a really basic model, but it looks great.

  2. Zipper

    Months in the making, comes Zipper, inspired by Greg Nuse's model.

    Made by Chance in 1968, the wildest ride in the midway makes its debut out of K'Nex 49 years later. With an action true to the original, this model boasts over 1000 pieces, including 9 giant yellow gears and over 10 feet of chain. Easily the hardest ride to replicate, it just shows what time and effort can accomplish.
