[SKI SKOOTER.]
The Ski Skooter, shown on [Plate 54], is best made of ash.
The runner is first made 5/8" × 3-3/8" × 39" and thinned down, for ten inches from the front end, to 3/8" thick.
The runner is steamed, bent and grooved by the method shown in Plate 55.
The upright piece is made 7/8" × 3-1/8" × 16-1/8" and one of the bracing pieces 7/8" × 1-3/8" × 12" and the other 7/8" × 1-3/8" × 13". These are cut at an angle of 45 degrees at each end, as shown.
The Ski Skooter is great sport on a moderate hill.
The seat is made 7/8" × 6" × 12", and the top edges are slightly rounded.
Two grips, which also have their lower edges rounded, are made 3/4" × 7/8" × 5".
