Here I'm using a compass with a dowel rod to trace out
the base of the hoverboard. If you do not have a compass with a dowel rod you
can take a long string and tie one end to the end of a nail and the other end
to a pencil then tap the nail into the center of the wood and bring the pencil
around the wood.
Next take a jig saw and cut out your circle and sand the edges
if needed.
Optional: With a hole saw or a jig saw cut out a hole to
fit the pvc. This makes it easy to take the leaf blower on and off.
If you don't use a pvc make a hole big enough for the leaf blower to fit.
If you don't use a pvc make a hole big enough for the leaf blower to fit.
From the largest corner of leftover wood trace out another
circle for the medallion. Then tap a screw in the center so the drill doesn't walk,
if you have a hole saw big enough if not draw a circle with a compass or pencil and string
and cut it out with a jig saw.
Same as above.
If the edges are ruff use sand paper to sand till smooth.
Lay your board in the corner of your tarp/shower certain
and cut a square to size.
Now cut a parameter around the board leave enough room to fold it
over the edge.
Fold the tarp/shower certain over the edge of the wood and add duct tape
to fasten it down. Then if you have one use a stapling gun to make it more secure
if not add more duct tape.
Put a square of duct tape a little bigger than the medallion in
the center of the tarp/shower certain so it dosen't rip. Screw in medallion in the
center of the tarp. Make sure the screw is not long enough to go through the other
side of the wood.
Cut 3" holes in the tarp/shower certain to let enough air
out for it hover. The hoverboard was ridden a lot before this picture was taken
but it should look something like this.
Now it's time to enjoy your own diy hoverboard.
