Bobby gets beer crate

Or to say it in an other way: The project with the Bobbytractor is put on ice. I’m building a driving beer crate now.

I had the idea of that Bobbytractor, because I wanted to build a motorized vehicle. The main thing was to build something with an engine and not that it has to be something like that Bobbytractor. That was just the first thing, which came on my mind.
A few days ago I came upon a website, where somebody has build something like that and I thought: “You want this, too!”. So i began to plan, but I saw very quickly, that I can’t build many parts in that way, I rather wanted to, just because I don’t have the maschines too do it. You already know, want you have, when you have lost it.
But I didn’t want to give up and so I seached on the internet, how I can build it with my moderate appliances and I found something.
And the solution is so easy. My biggest problem was to realize a good steering. A steering, where the wheels runs parallel and so on.
The idea is just to use one front wheel instead of two. Like a trike.
The plans for this trike are just in my mind at the moment and I will bring them an paper in the next few days, but I already began to weld the frame and I’m well happy with the result.
