NEW PRODUCT Introducing: The Air Surfer

[JLcribber]

If you've never heard of or seen Lou the swinging Cockatoo, he is the inspiration for this brand new product I call "The Air Surfer"

Surf the air waves on this super sweet hanging Air Surfer. It is recommended to use a least 3ft long chains (fastened into framing) to get the proper swing/flow. 4ft long. 20" wide. Weighs 16 pounds without chains (not included if shipping to save weight). $185.00

That looks like fun loaded to the max!!!
Wow!

Another amazing item that you have created.

Someone is really having fun on that! What a great idea, especially with the perpendicular rungs. Stop it John, I have to get a glass of wine before I open and enjoy your posts, but then cry because they are over the border and so far away!

 

[Sodapop&Co.]

Awesome. I need to make myself a small version of that now

Very nice! Remember that video of the cockatoo spinning on the wheel? you were going to make one of those. It's been a long time since that video was posted.

I was about to start looking for that video because I remembered it too. when I saw John's post it came into my mind right away.
I can't wait to see John's spin on it!

Great minds think alike!

Man....what fun! I'd swing on that! Make one that supports me with my birds.
I have one of those porch swings that hang from ceiling on porch, my birds love sitting on shoulder and going for a swing!!
Your definitely very creative there john.

It's in the cards. Lots of things to work out because of course I'm going to take it to another level.

You can hang on this one. I hung on it to test (180 pounds). Didn't even squeak

How in the world did that cockatoo do that circling? John a bird would never be bored in your home!

Now that's solid right there, wow!

Hey John wanted to throw an idea your way both my birds enjoy playing with. It's a little Ferris wheel, hat has cups on it. I fill the cops with a variety of little goodies to snack on.
And they spin the wheel to get cup and get the treats. I little foraging fun.
I picked it up at a thrift store, thought hmmm, idea.
I wish it wasn't plastic, I monitor them so they don't go chewing up plastic. Would be nice to have similar made of wood. Does have to be round, octagon shape wheel would suffice.

Thats another great idea. Lots of little parts on that thing. Needs simplifying. Would also need to be made bigger or it would be too fragile. On the list.

Thought the same. It's about 14 inches high, ok for small birds. But like you said, needs to be taller and simplified.

Really? You're going to take the spinning wheel on a 'nother level? Do share a video of you spinning around on it when you get it done!!!

This is more of what I had in mind. Just a seed right now. The idea will grow.

Looks like a bicycle tire frame with a band of quarter inch wire attached to the outside rim for easy grip. Mount it to a sturdy post and badabing.. you're done! I think my zons would hate it.
