Here is more Show n Tell, you might see this on a few football games and other events:
It took days to shape out of EPS, glassed with 4 gallons of RR and lots of 6 oz. I shot Linear Polyurethane (white base first, notice the stencils,) then spec Red over it. I had to fabricate some internally threaded “foot pads” and welded some handle fixtures.
It’s 5’2" across, I think 4’3" tall, it had to make it in proportion to the original Salvation Army Kettle they loaned out (sitting on ground.) That’s our electrician, Joe, bending some of his scrap conduit for the handle. You can see the “lighted” SUP in the background and Doyle’s second prototype board above it, I made a lot of money for that guy…
Last shot, Suzi taking it away, she’s pretty high up in their organization, I think she once did the news or something. Never got any feedback on how it paddles, but I bet it floats like a sumbitch. Christmas time is busy for them, so I thought it would be fun to share this from a couple years ago.
“MERRY CHRISTMAS!”
