Home-Built Mechanical Bull
If you've got your eye set on rodeo competition, you'll like this simple home-built mechanical bull built by Raymond Helmuth, Zearing, Iowa.
  It consists of a teeter-totter frame built onto a pair of long stabilizing skids. A "barrel bull" attaches to one end of the pivoting crossbar. There's a handle at the other end along with a pair of heavy springs.
  The rider climbs onto the barrel while another person grabs the handle and bounces the bull up and down. To adjust the bounce, the springs can be moved back and forth on a set of holes.
