Hey guys, we found this in the canal today, and were wondering if we could bild a slider on it? Its like a 3' (about) thick sheet of foam with a sheet of plywood glued/screwed on top of it. We like the plywood being there because its something to put screws into. Also, we would put comething of the sides to keep it stable.

Do you think it would work?

P.S.- I didnt know how to put photos on here so i just used photbucket.

Thanks

Oliver

not yet...im on vcation right now.

WakeFrog1970, it took about 4 hours total build time. But getting all the materials home took most of the time. I thought it was really fun, so it didnt seem like it took too long to me.

Thanks
