A Homemade Tethered Hovercraft for Kids Built With a Leaf Blower and Insulation Boards

Kids Hovercraft

YouTube user videopapa built an impressive homemade hovercraft using an Ego Cordless Power leaf blower and a pair of polystyrene insulation boards cut into four-foot circles. The result of the project is one happy kid being pulled along for the ride. The hovercraft’s creator promises more detailed schematics on the project later, but has posted some detailed images of its creation in the meantime.
