Wooden Bicycle
Wooden Bicycle
I modeled this bicycle for my Great Granddaughter who just turned three. The problem is, it's a little big for her so i got to figure out some training wheels or wait until she's a little older...or both. I bought a bike from Walmart so I could use the wheels, peddles and bearings, which was cheaper than buying the parts separately.

Re: Wooden Bicycle
That will get a lot of attention when she’s old enough to ride it around!
Cool project, Gary!

Re: Wooden Bicycle
This is amazing. Designing all of the parts to fit together and sizing for the bearings must have taken a lot of time.

Re: Wooden Bicycle
Very nice... what kind of wood did you use? Had to be something strong like oak.
