DESCRIPTION:
Very informative book. Very informative book.. What a great idea! critters The premise of the book is how to build a golf cart-like contraption out of an old bicycle and a load of PVC, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Having built a 6-wheeled custom critter wheelchair out of PVC, I know how friendly PVC is to work with, and having read this book I'm considering adapting these ideas to make something for myself. I don't need a two-seater or 2 sets of pedals, for instance. The pictures are nice and add an awful lot to the explanations given. VERY highly reco. Peter H Gilson said Interesting. Not at all the way I would do it, but then again I have very high-end bikes and I would start with high-end stuff. This book shows how to do this using everyday WallyWorld level stuff. Good job, Mr. Blankenship.
I will show you how I made mine from a single bicycle I picked up at a yard sale for $10. Sure, you can find plans on the Internet, but the ones I found often required two identical bikes and expensive customized parts from a machine shop (and they still cost more than this book). This attention-getting two-seater was engineered to be built from ONE bicycle, some PVC pipe, and a few miscellaneous parts using typical hand tools many people already have. Use this detailed account of my successes and failures to help you design your own bike. You can spend thousands on a four-wheel commercial bike or you can have the fun of building your own. You'll find many design and construction hints and suggestions along with 38 full-c
