So there is going to be a big toy storage unit in my room that is inspired by the ferris wheel.  Its "cars" will be storage bins and the entire thing will actually turn so that a kid can actually spin the wheel to get the toys from the bins that are up high.  Me and the contractor crew have been daydreaming about how to make this work, and I think we have a contender for the outer structure...

Dad, you are a genius.... This baby is a reel used for storing conduit.  It's a hefty 7ft round, and I think it could be a perfect start for our ferris wheel! And talk about a focal point.  Spin on...
