This year in school workng as a teacher i had the idea to compete in a local soapboxrace.I wanted to build something looking really cool and my students would have to use all techniques learned last year .

Because i need some kind of plan or pictures to let the students see wat is needed builded i searched the internet and at a website called off road fab i found the design for the chassis we were going to build .We did some changes to our build to keep costs down .

Now the buid is ready and i will post a few pictures each day .

Hey!

Try to find some wheelchair hubs for it. You could contact on some
wheelchair repair shop, they should have pairless hubs for few euros.
Those wheelchair hubs are often 36holes, so they match for most regular
bicycle rims. They are easy to respoke.
