The base for the octopus ride.

The gears used to power the ride; probably the most challenging step.

This is the connecting body structure that will be used to connect the arms of the ride.

These are the arms and chairs for the ride.

This trailer is used for disassembly and transport. 

This is what you should have when done; if you have any questions, please feel free to let me know.

This is extra fencing that will go around the ride.
