godman Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Now that our 2014 Show (or for you sticklers-Display) is about to come to an end I have been tasked by the better half to make a Ferris wheel for our 2015 display, I prefer PVC and have looked on YouTube and searched Google but I don't really see any detailed plans to build one, Anyone have some plans they are willing to share or sell? Thanks in advance, Happy new year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denny Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Not sure if they use PVC, but Winfield has plans for a ferris wheel and a carousel.http://www.thewinfieldcollection.com/category/s?keyword=ferris+wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I made one of the winfield ferris wheels ,plans were detailed ,looks great, & people loved it. Took some time to make and paint it but i think it was worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Anderson Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I also made one of the Winfield ferris wheels. It uses wooden gears and you need to be a good woodworker (which I am not) to get the gears cut out correctly. I ended up using a belt and pulley system. It is a good set of plans and is a popular item in my display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
