Weesled final (edit)

This is my model of the weesled that I made in google sketch up. It took me a couple days and alot of trial and error, but I finally settled on this choice. it's simple and it's functional, this model isn't 100% accurate to what I had planned but it is still relatively close to the original, the most difficult part was making sure everything was straight and fit properly, if I were to add more, i would make the sides also curve upwards to prevent flipping if it turns sideways. I would recommend this for ages 3 - 6 because of the normal safety issues with sledding. the sled is securely held to the weerol and the sled is built out of the same materials and a protective coat will be put over it, so it will be durable, and because of the

protective coat over the sled, it also makes it easier to slide along the floor with ease and prevents scratching of both the sled and the floors. The sled goes on just as easily as the wheels by securing to the same axel in place of the wheels. as it is right now the only big safety issue is the possibility of turning sideways and flipping with the child on it, but in construction I had planned on making the sides curved as well to prevent flipping. the only reason it's not in the model is because of time constraints as well as my skill level preventing me from doing so. Upon construction, I was planning on building the sled in the same fashion as the Weerol it's self, that seems like the most efficient, durable, and i feel as though the style of the accessory works well with the materials. This accessory seems to fit with the weerol by being built the same way, as well as fitting in with the versatility of the toy itself, this will make the toy more effective year round and will allow children to play outside with it as oppose to being forced to play with the toy inside.
