Unicycle with coaster brake?

Me and my dad are thinking of trying to make a unicycle with a coaster brake. Just wondering but has anyone tried this before? before i go and waste a whole bunch of money (I'm only 13 my allowance isn't that great) do you even know if this works?

Been done. Hard to ride, it's been said.

I think that thread was about a freewheel unicycle, not a unicycle with a coaster brake

Sara C., Unipsychogirl, has a coaster uni. Don't know of any video or pics of it though. She posted about it in this thread.

It does look like the SWAT Coaster does not have a coaster brake.
