My Dad has built most of his games over the years, I suspect this is what most other showies do too :)

Ride Freak, just about all of those standard 'water gun' games are USA made. There are comnpanies that do various parts along the way eg. trailerizing, but as Vee said, most owners oversee the projects themselves - it is too speciific for an Aussie company to specialise in, from start to finish. (they wouldn't have enough orders to justify their business)

As for websites, I can't help you - but USA made seems to be the go (would be cheaper than Euro)

Carnival Games

Also Bob's Space Racers, very expensive but very good.

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but does anyone know of any companies world wide that make the sideshow tents... At RES there was a number of square framed stalls with a circus style roof and apparently an american company manufactures and sells the tents with the canvas.

Is there a website to this company? Cheers

im not an expert on this, but my guess would be commercial tent makers/ canvas workers would make them on request.These types of businesses do alot of things with camper trailer and the like. i knew of places in my old local town that would probably make up this sort of thing to go over a frame that had been constructed.

Maybe getting in contact with Chippa Chant or Broderick Pavier as they own some real neat sideshows
