Hey guys, I need a favor please. In no way did I try to be contentious regarding slide toppers when I started this thread. Before arguments lead to this thread being "closed" I ask you to please indulge me in the fact that I don't want to use slide toppers. I have nothing personally against anyone that makes that choice, but for the sake of discussion, I'm simply asking for alternatives.
Now, several of the solutions like making a PVC water wand, and the idea of using a device to move across the top of the slide are things I have been tossing around. I was thinking along the lines of getting a 30" push broom, remove the handle, and add some wheels for it to glide on the top of the slide. It could easily be pulled from side to side.
A lot of this may sound crazy, but I just find it enjoyable to look for solutions to different problems.
