My girlfriend found a Bionicle mask on the floor where she works, so she stuffed it in her pocket and brought it home for me. I sat looking at it for a while, trying to figure out what to do with it, when I remembered all of the cool hover cars I’d seen here. The mask didn’t lend itself well to a car, but it reminded me of the cowl of a snowmobile.

So here they are: Hover Sleds!

The brown sled was built first. I then dug through my collection and pulled out another mask that had been kicking around for awhile, and built the yellow one. After all, it’s no fun to ride alone!

Let me know what you all think.

(...) Welcome to .space Elroy. (We all find our way here sooner or later.) I think you've got a winner there (too bad there's no contest.)

(...) These are excellent....such a simple designt that works so well. And as Bram had mentioned, the SNOTted on classic chairs are ingenious. Love 'em. Cheers, -G (20 years ago, 1-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
