Kinetic Hockey Player

Introduction

Hello Everyone,

First, I would like to thank you for viewing my instructable.
And, if you enjoyed it, please give me a vote!
Thanks....

I tried to figure out what I wanted to build for the kinetic contest.
So, I went to google patents website and searched for kinetic.
This kinetic sculpture came up on my search.
Kinetic sculpture
Built and designed by Gordon E. Bradt.
So, I would like to give a big thanks to Gordon for his design.

They showed a golfer in the patent, so I figured I would try and do a hockey player instead.

I am not going to go into heavy detail on building this, as everyone's would be different.
Unless, of course, we had the exact same parts.
But, this should give you a good start!

There are many different ways to do things, so I am showing you, the way I did it.
If you know of a better or cheaper way, let us know.

Now onto the instructable...

Just Thinking….. I was wanting to make a cat toy, for two “fat cats”

.Could you beef it up anchor it down up add a motor attach a string to the club end and have a cat toy to whip out a string? Please see my idea as another use for yours on steroids,
