Build Your Own Monorail

jpatokal writes "Building your own roller coaster may be fun, but how about something a little more practical -- like a monorail in your back yard? Kim Petersen designed his from scratch, building the elevated track from wood, scavenging the engine from a motorized walker and handcrafting the train from sheet metal. Total cost: $4000! See the photo tour and the construction history."

    >> if its not good enough... hey I can fix it myself, I have the source code.

    Are you really gonna make a significant improvement, just because you have the source code? I would rather play with my cunt then waste time learning the code base, figuring out what needs to be done, then 100's of hours coding/building/debugging. No sir, I don't think you will do that. You are a troll. Please go suck your mom's cock instead of posting complete bullshit on slashdot.

    This isn't worthy of a slashdot story. Neither would someone's wasting money on Everquest stuff, you don't rate a story by how "good" it is, but if it's good enough to be a /. story. Frankly, I think it's boring.
