We call it "Stevie's Yellow Bananna"
We go camping twice a year with a bunch of retired, reserve and active duty Soldiers and always look for something different to entertain the kids with. Well - this year my wife talked me into finishing the barrel for the kids to rid in. I ran out of time to make it properly out of angle iron, so I defaulted to a couple pieces of lumber and yes - I did mount the steering wheel later...
The plan was to make four of them to tow them like a small wagon train. Oops - I guess one will do this year... I've seen them all over the last couple years and figured it'd be fun for the little man in me... Oh and for my son...
Who knows - with a nice coat of Thompsons the lumber might buy me a couple years worth of fun prior to having to remake with iron.
