I used to call the paratrooper the umbrella ride 😂 and I used to love to ride this in my younger days 👍awesome video too

Hey, 2 years late to the party but if you haven't found anything better yet then i recommend looking at miniature paints. I use Green Stuff World Chrome (Airbrush) but some people also recommend Alclad Chrome. You use any cheap airbrush (precision is not needed here) to basically faintly mist a black gloss finish part with the stuff and it gives a mirror like chrome finish.

These guys deserve more money for what they do, very physical!

Back in the 70s I took my son on the tilt-a-whirl in Myrtle Beach. Nobody was around so he let it run for 15 minutes. My turn to be green.

Chippewa Lake in Ohio. Either the Bug or maybe when my dad took me on the “world’s fastest Ferris wheel “ I wanted to go again but my mother later told me that he was green. Also could have been the flying scooter at Euclid Beach.

Got paint all the back to 1980. What wrong with us Pete?

It's a Freak out ride with 24 seats

What about Kamikaze ride

What about the other rides and a swimming pool, Pete

Please upload Restoration of the Super Shot Ride 95ft and also Build a Wooden Swimming pool that's about 10ft x 16ft x 4ft the materials need 2x4s, screws, impact driver, plywood, 16x24ft tarp 20mil, and even pool filter pump.

Jeez Pete your grandkids will grow up remembering how you built them their own private carnival and also how you would let them sleep in the drawer of your workbench. In other words: BEST GRANDPA EVER! P.S. I find Lowe's to be slightly pricier than Home Depot...but there have been a handful of times where Lowe's carried something that Home Depot didn't, whilst I can't say the inverse.

Gas powered Ferris wheel 😂 man how the times have changed! Can’t wait to see this baby restored!

Never cease to be amazed by the engineering behind these rides!! Thanks for another great video!

we have way better rides here in the uk american funfairs are shit

I rode on that ride in union!! stayed at the koa there several times.

@Pete Rondeau Nice video but some questions remaining for the nail paint: Did you abrasion-proofed it? Is it UV sustainable? Can you put a layer of clear coat without loosing the shiny appearance? Another tip: Try germans REVELL CHROM spray paint it will surprise you

Great video, how long does it take to assemble and how much manpower?

jajajajajajajajajajajjajajaja The Princess Bed

Yeah...looks like my bucket system. (You know, shove it in a bucket, stack it in the corner.)

Electric motor drive? That's unusual. The motors are usually hydraucally run.

I'm more of a Home Depot guy because I got into the Ryobi ecosystem after getting stuff second hand like batteries. But since we have both I usually just go to whichever is closest to work, or home, or whoever has items in stock. Still wish Hechninger was around. Ace Hardware feels a lot better, but the selections aren't always the biggest, but they sometimes have the oddball stuff the big boxes don't carry like a 2 pole 15a breaker for my Sense energy monitor.

Hey there! Thanks for pioneering part of this process. I am very curious in trying the nail polish finish. I am painting a front grill piece on my car, and am curious on a few things. How does the nail polish finish hold up? This video is a few years old, so I am curious as to how those pieces have held up overtime. Do you recommend a clear coat? And/or, will it ruin the shine? Finally, have you discovered anything to make this process easier, or done more testing with these methods? And/or, have you found a way to coat larger objects reliably? The piece I’m painting is fairly big, and I am worried about using a tiny brush on the whole piece. Maybe I can upscale the brush? I am fairly new to the DIY scene in terms of painting, and I am very very thankful for this video. Your work is incredible, and I plan on doing a lot of testing with the nail polish method. I’d love to stay in touch and share my findings with you, maybe soon there will be a much easier streamline method for mirror chrome. Thank you so much!

We moved the HW heater from the corner of the garage (to make room for a utility sink) over to next to the HVAC (Florida). But, that put it right next to the door from the house. Rather than see the utilities every time we go through the door, I built a 6' "bookcase" just for spray cans - with a little wraparound the tank. That's on hinges bolted to the wall, so it can swing away (or be removed) should the heater need service. So, its a wall of paint cans but still looks better. Nice drawer you made. Reminds me of the time, traveling, we had Peter sleep the whole night in a drawer - you know, pulled out and on the floor. HE doesn't remember.

I miss a lot of the older kiddie rides that were around in the 70s I remember in 76 my dad took me and my older and younger brother to the county fair my older brother was 12 i was 7 and my younger brother was 3 my older brother met up with one of our cousins and went off to ride the big rides and my younger brother and I rode all the kiddie rides the old allan herschell army tanks the flying saucer carrousel fighter jets little train so many and even some of the big rides were driven by gas units back then such great memories.

Hey Pete i was just wondering when another ride setup video will be released also great job on the storage system

Between Lowe’s, Home Depot, and Menards. Home Depot is the favorite. They have more stores and their online pickup is faster.

I love your vice

I'm glad it's not just me who saves paint if needed. I feel so much better seeing this.. 👍

Your old paint cupboard was where paint went to die!

We have both HD and Lowe's. Which one I go to depends entirely on what I need... I.E. - Home Depot has better electrical hardware for roughing in electrical, but Lowe's has a better selection of caulking/sealants. We also have a plethora of independently owned Ace Hardware stores, but selection is always mediocre and price always 20-50% more. PS-Polyshades works better in a spray gun. I've had luck with a couple projects (saltwater aquarium tank stand and canopy) by thinning it out and using a HVLP. It does take multiple coats. I'm tickled that 30 year old can was still good.

Home Depot and Lowe’s should both go out of business, awful stores with awful service

Keep the videos coming. I appreciate them!

Normally, the smaller slide can be removed from the two other ones for easy attaching to the tray (we use the same slides for computers).

Wish as organized as you.....have a great Father's Day...oh, around here in Kentucky...we all kinda been supporting the local Ace franchises, Tractor Supply or then go to a big box. Nice installment..

Wow, i also saw a can of Flood Penatrol. I haven’t used that stuff in a hundred years. The paint draw is a great idea. I have the same issues with wall space. Great video Pete!

That horse ride is so incredibly unsafe I love it

Also just a mention. The Steeplechase ride has an operating cousin at Blackpool Pleasure Beach in the UK. It's an Arrow Dynamics version from the 1980s. And now the only one remaining in the world.

In my area we neither have lowes or home depot. We have the Gamma or the praxxis. Maybe even the karwei or the hornbach

You are never going to use that walnut paint, put it in the bin.

Hey Pete! That "Subscribe" drawer gets me every time! 🤣

What a great way to check the weight limit..... 👍

We have both Lowe’s and home depot,Menards is way better than both of them. Always enjoy your videos, thank you.👍

Nice video Pete. I really like those heavy duty drawer slides.

you are mega clever i wish my tool room was half as tidy as yours, all the best Richard from across the pond))

In the part of Texas, I'm from, it was Home Depo, and then in North Carolina, where I moved, it was Lowes, I think. Now in Georgia, I don't know.

Getting organized so we can get back to our restoration projects. See our other shop organization ideas here: ua-cam.com/play/PL9JRE2uksm9t5r86PBOeyB3l0nenx_e8p.html

I luv that ride I’m gonna go on it when the fair outside is done setting up

Pete - Thanks for the help. Glad to finally get the files.

Thanks for sharing
