    I made one with foil tape and thought it was kind of tacky and I could do better. Thanks for showing the proper way.

    Could you show how you put it together? I’m not mechanically inclined and am a visual learner. Especially the eye bolt and notched part.

    Where did you pick up the plastic? I would also think reusing old aluminum panels off window shutters would work too.

    • @LarryCook1960
      @LarryCook1960  2 года назад +2

      Possibly tapplastics.com. It's easy to find online in various colors. Sure, scrap aluminum would work fine.

    • @dang48
      @dang48 Год назад +1

      Pretty much any scrap pieces of flat material would work as long as it's not too heavy. I think the panels would work like a charm for this and would look really neat in the process.

      I held on to some old aluminum Street signs and also some thin material of awning slats. I knew I kept them for a reason!

    Looks great and a very good idea. Do you connect the center by the hub? I noticed you have a hole there. Thanks for sharing with us. Albert in Texas.

      I was going to use those holes to wire tie the blades to a spoke, but they weren't needed.

    What did you use to cut the Plexiglas and how long and how wide are your blades ? And did you use Stainless steel Eye bolts and washers ?

    • @LarryCook1960
      @LarryCook1960  Год назад

      I used a tablesaw, with an 80 tooth crosscut blade. Cut slowly, with the blade only about 1/8" above the acrylic. The blades are 2" wide, with the length dependent upon your wheel size. Yes, the hardware is stainless.

      ​@@gregoryp9217 My blades are 1/8" thick, and 10.5" long, but since there are several wheel diameters that really depends upon which one you have. By oscillating saw, if you mean a Sawzall, it would destroy the acrylic. If you mean a saber saw . . . . . perhaps a brand new blade meant for plywood wouldn't chip the acrylic too much. www.acmeplastics.com/content/how-should-i-cut-acrylic-plastic/
