I built a bicycle man whirligig similar to yours. I never quite got the mounting done properly. It did work but was very top heavy. Yours seems to work nicely.
I was looking for a bicycle whirligig; and, yours is unique in that it does not have a propeller but depends on the vanes in the bicycle wheels which makes it much more interesting. I would very much appreciate a copy of the photos whichI could use to attempt to duplicate your achievement !
Hi Paul: Did you use bearing on the wheels, particularly on the wheel forks? I like your design so much that I'm putting a list of parts and pieces to eventually build one. It may not look like yours; but I'll adapt some of your techniques. I do not have the sort of strong wind here in California you seem to have in your area; so I'll have to design mine, taking the my wind in consideration. This the reason for asking. Thanks.
@@westcoastwhirligigs6397 Hi! This is amazing! I would be glad to receive some close-up photos as well 🙂 I love this design and would like to have it at the front of my garden!
HI! from Western Australia Could you please show or tell how you fixed the support post because yours swivels at the bottom somewhere many thanks in advance for any help you can give .
Hi Tony, the support post fits on top of a fixed pole, so the support post attached to the whirligig can swivel as it finds the wind, while the fixed pole remains stationary

Thanks for that, its always a challenge trying to keep the weight down

Thanks, I can send you some pictures if it would help
Love it. It is different from the other whirligigs i’ve seen.

I love your biker. Do you have plans?
I don't have any plans of the biker but I could send you a couple of close-up pictures and you can ask any questions if you have them
That would be great. I could probably put one together from a profile photo and a measurement or two. My e-mail is woodified AT gmail DOT com

Excellent design, what diameter are the wheels and what are the ‘spokes’ made from
16 inches on the big wheel and 12 on the small. The spokes are 1/4 inch thick lats. Thanks
