this video gives 2006 vibes :D
SaWeeeeet ... I LOVE it. I have 70 feet of an old galvanized beach rail system which was once used for a boat. I want to put a "turn table" on the carriage. I have a "T" hanger for my Avid Magnum. I want to run the rail system from inside the hanger out about 40ft. When arriving back to the hangar ... taxi onto the turntable, rotate 180 deg and then just push the plane into the hangar with the nose facing out. To depart, just push the turn table out to the end of the rails, fire her up and off you go. NO fighting to turn the plane around by hand, it is all grass in front of the hanger so it is difficult try to maneuver. LOVED this video. INSPIRING! THANK YOU for sharing this AWESOME idea. TWO thumbs up from CYQT.
Ooooh my! 😂
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
That was very entertaining mate brilliant
Great job man. What’s the price tag on all the materials you bought?
That is amazing!! Could you show me how to make a similar motorized rotating platform for a bed?
do you think there's a way for both pet and person to use the stair lift (one at a time)? my boxer mastiff needs to use my daughter's stair lift.
Great work!!!
how much did this cost? could you post a link or a list of all materials used?
All in, about $2200. I have seen them commercially sold for around $10,000. The skate wheel conveyors I found on ebay for $800 with shipping, materials (stone, 5/8 plywood, decking, paint, screws, concrete) were another $800 truck hub for center support $100. 3 gear motors $350 Marine 12 volt battery $125. I wired in a transmitter to turn the platform on and off and the gear-rack bent around the circumference of the deck for the motors to drive the platform, make up the rest of the $2200. If i were to do it over,, and I may, I'd use a friction drive, instead of gear-drive motors. I've actually thought of just bolting rubber skateboard wheels to the top of the gears on the motors, and lowering them. Remove the rack gear from the platform and see how that works!
ahhhh, the long straight ski with the infamous attached to your boot runaway strap, how did we survive years of that?
You sounded like you were impersonating Kevin pollack
This is fantastic. I’m in the process of purchasing a house that is on a busy street with a narrow driveway. I’m wanting to build something like this into the garage, that I plan on building.
Can you make a video explaining in more detail how you built this please?
Well it's already built, so hard to give a step by step now. But I'll try: I used 'skate wheel conveyors' to build the circle. I measured the wheel base to make sure the conveyors diameter would allow the front and rear wheels to rest on equally on it when parked. I bolted tge conveyor tracks together and leveled them using bricks and stone. I added stone to the inside of tge circle for drainage and to lock the circle in place. Next came tge decking (2 layers) the bottom layer being 3/4 plywood and the upper layer was plastic decking. If I did it over, I'd make both layers plywood (painted on both sides). By tge way, I kept testing for rotation as I went along, making sure it spun freely at every step. Finally:how to spin it? This can be done a number of ways, tge best I think is a motor driving a pinch-wheel on the outside circumference of tge turntable, several of them! Hope this helps.
I got to admit it that was very impress, great job. Do you have any updates since you build this platform? Thanks
very good in 2022
I like this a lot, the wholesome backstory and everything

Amazing job 👏 👍
how much total cost for your DIY? it was nice to see this kind of cool things
All tolled, about $2000, about a 5th the price of one's I've seen for purchase on the web
Awesome Job, Now all we need is Plans. The most fun video I've watch in years. " yes i'm weird". Thanks for sharing
Really good!!😁
??
nice
Really good Captain... ha-ha
That was perfect 🤣😂
Epic! One of the coolest DIY projects I've seen.
Really good….
Great job!! And looks so much fun! I’ve been wanting to do something similar as well.
thanks Milind, go for it! The other possibilities that open up can be equally fun!!
That was a video for your ego. Sorry that wasn't helpful for us who's wife's after watching you video want a turn table for their car now. P.s Good job though. 😉👍
I was wondering where you were going with that Jason, sure maybe a little for my ego but mostly to show others it can be done and done cost effectively. My friends and i share our contraptions, not for an ego boost but for fun!
Superb 👌👌👌 awesome
And i thought i came up with something ingenious, damn it. :)
Sweet! How's it holding up?
Not bad!

You my sir, are a goddamn genius.
The spelling on Utube is horrendous! If you don't know how to spell a word look it up. The mistakes are numerous.
That was exactly what I was looking for and it was epic. You sir get a gold star.
so many improvements have been made over the years, Try a 21 plate dry cell, use sodium hydroxide in the water .....
You didn't need that many rollers. Now when there's load on it, it flattens the part where it's being rested on and literally all of the rollers have a weird jerkiness to them when you rotate the turntable.
Doesn’t more rollers distribute the weight more evenly? I estimate roughly 2,000 rollers and a Toyota FJ Cruiser is around 4,300 pounds plus the wood that’s only like 2.25 pounds on each roller. The rollers deforming from that small of a load would be like your skateboards wheels deforming if you left it out over night.
@@EvySpaghetti Also, this is one of the biggest waste of materials for solving this particular problem. That's why commercial solutions go with worm drives.
Kinda motor you use? Microwave turn table motor? Lol.. id say one of those little old gas pop n fart motors would work pretty good. Be cool to go all binford on it and hook a 1000cc R1 motor to it and see how long it takes you to pass out in the drivers seat... lol
Great Work, good on ya!
Hi what motor did you use? I want to make a platform like this for a party to take photos
what did you use for platform and securing it to foot rest
what are the metal rollers and where do you get them?
I'm also interested in the metal rollers.

@@p__jay Known by many names. It's essentially conveyor roller track. This kind looks like Nestaflex (brand) gravity conveyor. Search for "roller conveyor 90 degree". You'll either need x4 individual 90 degree corners, or a long enough flexible one, to make a complete circle. It's around $600 per corner brand new at uline dot com, or you can find it on ebay or at a commercial liquidation/industrial supply type store for a little less.
