Simple leaf blower hovercraft

A SIMPLE LEAF BLOWER HOVERCRAFT

I built a simple hovercraft using an electric corded leaf blower, plywood and a heavy duty shower curtain. The leaf blower had a rating of 7A and air speed of 160 mph. I cut a 4 foot circle out of plywood using a CNC machine and then warped the shower curtain on the bottom of the plywood. A small hole of 1.5 inch diameter was made on the surface of plywood in order to fix the leaf blower. Finally the curtain was stapled and taped properly and the hovercraft was ready. Enjoy the video!!!


Now why did I slip? because my center of gravity was high above the ground since I was standing.
