This 12'-6" tall, 20 foot diameter, 15 rider old style “flying horses” carousel is complete and ready to operate. Kids love this ride and the ring catching game. It has eight animals, a double chariot, and five swing seats. William H. Dentzel is selling this sturdy carousel for $25,000. See parts list and drawing  or Word Doc for what is included and also what items can be added.

Bill has conducted several month long community and private carousel making sessions where animals and decorative parts have been made and/or painted. See the Carousel Animal Construction Handbook for instructions how to build your own animals. You or your group can add on to this carousel or work with Bill while learning the animal and/or scenic panel construction and painting techniques. As it is now the carousel operates easily with a rope-pull drive and carries 10 riders.
