The wheel keeps turning
I pulled out the chain for the cage today. A little work with some hot glue and I had some longer chain to put on the wheel I made today. I say wheel. It's a facimile of a wheel. What it really is is a pool noodle with paint sticks glued on and painted. I glued paint sticks on either side of a pool noodle (so the chains could lay over them and look like it was a functioning wheel. Like the movie, I'm only doing half a wheel. Which is convenient, cause a full wheel would have been a pain. I have some shorter rebar I'll slide the two sides of the pool noodle over so that it will form a half circle and give it that wheel look. I've now spray painted half of the pool noodle (and sticks) a brown 'wood' color and am just waiting for it to dry so I can do the other half. It's actually 2 pool noodles taped together, so it's a bit long. The only thing I'm a bit concerned about is that I added too many spokes. Pfft, oh well. Done now. Oh, looking at this pic I realized I did buy a cheapo scimitar for Abby, I just haven't added it yet. Doh.
