Google sketchup is a free drafting program that works great for designing a quick 3D project. You can even draw it to scale and then show measurements for when you start cutting out your actual pieces. Click here to download my model. I'm using a leaf blower to power the hover deck and an edge trimmer engine with a wood propeller to push the craft forward.

Dude! That's some crazy drafting with Google SketchUp. It's awesome! Keep up the good work, man! I can't wait to take it for a spin myself.
Nice blog. I made a simple hovercraft for my 4 year old son this weekend with plywood a leaf blower and shower curtain. He learned about air pressure. Cool stuff! We found a fun site with neat science experiments like simple hovercraft direction. I will put the link below for anyone interested.

how did you allow the air to escape from the bottom of the skirt? i am attempting to build a hovercraft myself for a physics project and found myself wondering.
