LARGE SIMPLE HOVERCRAFT
ULTRASIMPLE hovercraft can lift several adults! NEEDED Attach it to the bottomof the hovercraft as shown below. It goes over the plastic sheet.
http://www.amasci.com/amateur/hovercft.html

Extractions: (use a heavy 10mil plastic dropcloth 'Visqueen,' or a shower curtain) LEAF BLOWER (battery powered, gasoline), or 'ShopVac' vacuum cleaner SMALL PLASTIC DISK, coffee can lid, or 6" Lexan disk 1/8in thick BOLT, 2in, 1/4-20 NUT, 1/4-20 FENDER WASHERS (TWO) SMOOTH FLOOR (linoleum, ball court, or smooth concrete) electric saber saw, drill, razor knife, staplegun, duct tape Optional: lawn chair and clamps/screws to hold it down. Optional: some sort of rubber bumper for the edge. Nail on some old bike tires? Just cover it with duct tape? MAKE THE WOOD DISK Make a hole in the plywood which exactly fits the end of your leaf blower or shopvac hose. This hole must be placed half way between the center of the disk and the edge, as shown below. It's a good idea to trace the hole in pencil on the wood (place the mouth of the leaf blower on the wood and trace around it.) It DOES NOT have to fit perfectly. Later you can seal any leaks with duct tape. Or just let it leak. The hose should be flush with the bottom surface (don't let it stick out or the floor will block the air flow.) Next, lay your plywood disk on the center of your large plastic sheet. Fold the edges of the sheet up over the plywood, then use the staplegun to staple it to the top of the plywood disk. Put a staple about every 4 inches. The plastic should be tight against the wood, but don't pull it TOO tight or the plastic will tear loose when inflated. When finished, you can cut off the excess plastic. If you wish, used duct tape to tape the edge of the plastic down to make it look nice. From above, it should look like this:

Extractions: Do you dream of gliding through the air? Then don't miss today's show when Chris explains how to build your own hovercraft. The project is ultrasimple your kids can put it together in the backyard. What is a hovercraft? A hovercraft is a vehicle that rides on a cushion of air produced by downwardly directed fans, causing it to glide over surfaces. How a homemade hovercraft works Air produced by a small blower inflates a plastic sheet. The sheet pushes against the floor to provide a ground-hugging "skirt." This skirt lifts the entire hovercraft. A small plastic disk (or coffee-can lid) keeps the inflated plastic anchored so it doesn't tear loose from the center. The plastic disk also lifts up vent holes so air can escape into the center. What you need before you start You'll need the following items to build your hovercraft: One piece of plywood about 3 to 4 square feet, 3/8 to 1/2 inch thick

http://www.angelfire.com/sk/seattlebands/hovercraft.html

Extractions: Hovercraft was formed in 1993 by Sadie 7 and Cambell 2000. Previously they had played together in Space Helmet which was formed when Sadie first moved to Seattle. Also in Space Helmet was Cambell's brother and other members of the band Magnog . After Space Helmet broke up, Cambell moved to New York only to move back to Seattle. Hovercraft released one single, "0,0,0,1" with their first drummer Jerome230 aka Eddie Vedder (of Pearl Jam and Sadie's husband). After he left the band, they took a year and a half break before they found a new drummer named Carl. With Carl they recorded "Stereo Specific Polymerization" were on Repellint Records. But in 1997 they went to Mute America Records with "Akathisia". Later dash 11 replaced Carl completing the band. Their latest album "Experiment Below" came out after 5 years of work and thought. Durring one tour Sadie's husband Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam sat in on drums. He also has an alias for the band, but I'm not sure what it is at the moment. Discography:

The History Of The Hovercraft - Christopher Cockerell

http://inventors.about.com/library/inventors/blhovercraft.htm

Extractions: Hovercraft A hovercraft is a vehicle supported on a cushion of air supplied by a powered fan mounted on the craft. The hovercraft was invented by Christopher Cockerell in 1956. The theory behind one of the most successful inventions of the 20th century, the Hovercraft, was originally tested in 1955 using an empty KiteKat cat food tin inside a coffee tin, an industrial air blower and a pair of kitchen scales. Sir Christopher Cockerell developed the first practical hovercraft designs, these led to the first hovercraft to be produced commercially, the SRN1. Cockerell idea was to build a vehicle that would move over the water's surface, floating on a layer of air. This would reduce friction between the water and vehicle. To test his hypothesis, he put one a smaller can inside a larger can and used a hairdryer to blow air into them. The downward thrust produced was greater when one can was inside the other rather than air just being blown into one can. Biography (information provided by NASA) Christopher Sydney Cockerell was born in 1910. He worked for the Radio Research Company until 1935 and then for the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company from 1935 until 1951. During the war years Cockerell worked with an elite team at Marconi to develop radar, a development which Churchill believed had a significant effect on the outcome of the Second World War, and Cockerell believed to be one of his greatest achievements. While at Marconi, Cockerell patented 36 of his ideas. Christopher Cockerell was knighted for his achievement in 1969.
