The SkyLighter
Here's an early home-made model of the SkyLighter, glued together from bits and pieces. I made the big tube out of plastic PVC pipe, the front cone out of a toy cheerleader's megaphone, and cut the fins out of thin wood called masonite. Spray-painted it white, but now I'm thinking silver would look better.



The BulbaZoomer
This model started as plastic coffee creamer bottle and turned into the BulbaZoomer, Low Voltage and Bulbus' flying ship before it became the VacuZoomer. It has a big roll-up metal door--like a garage door--on the side, and a goofy light bulb cockpit in the front. Don't think we'll ever use it, but I do like the funny landing gear, modeled after 1960's vacuum cleaners you would pull across the carpet.
