    hanging a chain under the "entry" side would slow down the ramp on the assent but bring it back quicker. and its progressive load, the higher it goes the heavier, lower it gets lighter. if its needed, seems to work well now.

    • @-.-1724
      @-.-1724 4 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Depending on the weight of the chain though, I feel like it could slightly enhance the sketch factor of the feature (I'll leave it up to seth to decide whether that's a good or a bad thing) due to the teeter not going down as fast. I feel like it could be more predictable now where you're gonna know that the planks basically don't support your weight when you're on the second half and it looked like seth almost bunnyhopped or took weight off of the teeter at the middle, whereas when it supports a bit more weight it might feel weird to stay on and it might feel weird to "jump" early and then realize that the teeter isn't really going down and out of your way that quick.
      Complete shot in the dark though, just my thoughts.

      Nah that makes it way easier. Its way more difficult to jump of something moving fast than slow. He finally built a difficult thing. Don't dumb it down by making it slower.

    Man this looks fun to ride!
    Improvement Idea: I noticed the teeter totter had a significant amount of flexure across it's length after Seth hits it. As a mechanical engineer my first thought was that the repeated flexing will eventually cause the wood fibers to separate and lead to a pretty epic crack in the support beams. That said, of this were my build, I would reinforce the center or pivoting section of the teeter. Easiest way to do this would be to make some 2' to 3' lengths of the supporting beam and drill the same hole through them, then mount them on the inside of each support beam. This will help keep the teeter working for a long time to come as it gets repeatedly sent by riders. Hope this is useful, cheers.

      What I really noticed was the Notch at the end for the Teeter to "Hit Flat" heavily compromised that portion of the feature. I forecast it will break from the constant abuse of smashing on the landing especially with a near 90 degree cut instead of rounding out the cut after it was made to spread the load. Im Just a chemical engineer, but my limited knowledge in Mechanics of Materials at least aids in understanding concepts...

    Hey, when I used to build any wooden features back when I was living in Asheville, I learned to mix silica sand with just some standard deck seal. I forget the amount exactly. I want to say I added like... maybe enough silica sand to fill the paint bucket maybe 1/4 of the way. It's more than you think you should add.
    Since it's damp fairly often in Asheville, it'll give you a bit more safety in those spaces where to wood is slick -- especially those wooden berms you built.
    It's also just a good idea for anyone building a deck in a damp climate. Get some silica, like 40-70 mesh, fairly large grain if you can find it.

    How about putting some rubber bands on the "entry" side of the teeter. This will to some extend hold the "exit" side up. You could modulate this effect by the number of rubber bands and the speed you enter the teeter ;-)

    Hey Seth, as someone who loves your channel but is not about to ride ANY of the stuff that you build, I Love this feature. I see it as something that gives the rider the option of going full on to take the leap, or use it as a teeter totter (safer option?) to use it for the added momentum down the ramp (sorry, not right up on the terminology).
    Really great progression of a feature!

    Maybe put in elastic bands on the front of the teeter. So it gets reset quicker and the teeter doesn't float away under you. plus it would add a level of difficulty on the "normal" way of hitting it becaus of the delayed teeter.

    When I first saw the title, I thought it would be way crazier. My initial thought of "cannon" was that you'd just secure the start so it didn't move at all and it'd just be a huge jump. Could still do that but setting in some planks on each side with notches and a small, stiff bar to go into one of the gaps between the planks.

We also had one built in our local woods that got ripped down by the foresters after someone fell off it and tried to claim against them. I also built a portable teeter topper for the kids to use and when I was coaching other riders, plus you can always roll it out when having BBQ’s and got your mates round
