Motorized Bike, Gas Engine Toddler Trike, and See-Through Engine

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Robert Dane Whitmire

Home: California, United States

I designed in CAD a bicycle frame with an engine mount, then used those measurements to cut, miter, holesaw, then weld together a frame. From there I painted, and assembled using bicycle parts, a Gasoline Motorized Bicycle that can go 30mph legally, get ~120mpg, and is a fully functional vehicle. Also some years ago I welded a mount onto the back of a toddler Radio Flyer Trike, and mounted a 135cc Gasoline Engine onto the back. With some axle modification and a custom made hub, it got up to maybe 20mph, and covered maybe 3 miles before I stopped using it in favor of projects with brakes. As well, I took the internal components of a single cylinder engine, and designed and made a clear acrylic engine block and head to assemble them in, resulting in a great learning tool.

Castle Bravo

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Hack Club

Home: California, United States

Castle Bravo is a floating bouncy castle! Bouncy castles are incredibly buoyant, so why not put one on the water? It turns out there are lots of problems with doing that, but we solved all of them with engineering. And now we have a floating bouncy castle. It even has a motor so we can drive it around. Originally powered by dinosaurs, Castle Bravo is currently being converted to run on 100% solar power by teenagers at Hack Club, a worldwide network of students who build awesome things with technology. We’ll probably make it remote-controlled too. The castle is the flagship of our nascent armada, which will eventually include hundreds of home-built vessels built by hack clubbers around the globe. Come join us if that sounds like your kind of thing.
