You can use stodoys . The best handbooks and very detailed instructions. You can learn much from them and make it yourself.
Great video. I built one when I was a kid similar to yours, only I used my feet as brakes and a rubber V belt instead of a chain and soap box derby wheels as I only drove it on the pavement. Mine topped out at 40 mph. It's encouraging seeing someone your age doing something constructive with his time.
Thousands of lifetime projects with Woodglut plans.
I know I’m 5 years late but this really helped me out get into mocking go karts
Thank you young man great video well explained
Thank you so much for these amazing videos! I actually built the go kart for about 400$ and it runs great! For anyone else out there building it, I highly recommend using 8" Harbor Freight wheels for the front. Its a really fun project and if you have some spare time and money i very highly recommend it.
I'm old now, but built a lot of go cars when we were kids, growing up in Michigan. Man, this was fun to watch !!! I wish more young people would do things like this, these days.
Why are people complaining about this video? He is using his creativity and ingenuity to put together a go kart from available materials around him, and showing his ideas online. Eric, if you read this, great job on your videos!
haha
I agree.
we're complain about what he could've used like metal pipes and drilled holes to bolt them together also wood would break if you went and did like a downhill ride
+Eric Lindberg is it really worth the money and time
wood probably isn't the best for going off road but I really do love the ingenuity and creativity you used idc what anybody says that's one he'll of a piece right there. they're just made they didn't think of it
As Larry said, Reminds me of when I was young and rode my friends home made (by his Dad) go cart. Loads of fun and especially special to your memories because you built it! Thanks for sharing!
did one as a kid in the 1950"s .
mine had no breaks as we lived on a dead end street.
South Side of Chgo. Taught me mechanics.
God Bless You, Eric
I love this video man because how much description you put into it the other people don't even describe how to do it great video man
Really nice work Eric. Have fun with it now!
John and Joseph can't wait to take a spin. Video quality looks great. Great video. Good job.
I grew up on a farm and we made a couple go karts out of wood. it looks like you did a really good job with this one
;n;n;n;n;n;n;n;n;n;n;
I'm seven years too late but I love this vid. I got a free pedal go kart at my recycling center so now I'm making a new frame and adding an engine
Thanks for subscribing and that go cart sick!!!
Hey man! I'm a teenager just like you, I'm always building something out of wood , and I love it! Building is my most favourite thing ever. I've decided to go ahead and build your go kart but just to tell you, using an engine from a snowblower and using snowblower wheels, I cut your cost from $600 to approximately $195.00. You can use this number for reference if someone asks you. I love your videos an I find them sooooo helpful. Keep up the good work!
This is awesome. I cant weld, and I've been looking for a project to do with my 8 year old daughter, she loves to make stuff. This is so simple and easy it I cant imagine her getting overwhelmed! Thank you sir.
Sheesh I’m 6 years late but this really helped
Very, very nice. In engineering, simpler is _always_ better and I think you've done an excellent job in the area of that fact. Nice driving too! Not that my word means anything, that's just what I think. Haha
Thanks Eric for this awesome idea! I build mine with pretty much the same parts as you did. Runs amazing!
Great build Eric. I'm clueless about engines but your understanding and explanations are outstanding. Well done...enjoyed the series. Stay safe.
Looks like a lot of fun. I had a go cart when I was younger and wore out my parents yard. It is memories that I will always have. Thanks for showing your build and be careful with it. Have fun.
Good job, inspirational and thank you for doing this.
Nice work buddy! Thanks for sharing.
Looks like it could be super dangerous. I'm in.
Lmao broooo
The best summer project. I just finished mines. But I added a third seat of wheels for more support. It really is a lot of fun. Thanks
Fantastic work Eric! I can see you put a bit of time into this even though it's simple, simple is good! Great idea, have a nice week!
Rad and inspiring. Thanks for sharing!
That was a good and simple design and it works
Good job!
Great video, very explanatory and will help me with my go cart thanks.
Looks awesome! Great video(s). Inspiring!
the only bit i like was when you were doing doughnuts. looks awesome
why r y'all hating on this young man he doing his thing besides I don't see none of you doing anything constructive SMH keep up the good work
That go kart is asome
Great videos! Good work. I'm so impressed. I'm going to build one!
Wow great job
That's so cool. I am about to order my engine and love your videos. Thank you
EXCELENT JOB. EXCELENT. Simply clever.
Great video, thank you for the tips.
cool ride man great job!!
That's mad! Sick build
ProjectFearlessGaming yeah it is probably mad that it is sick.😎
You sir are a genius.
Great job!
very well explained!
Eric, you did a great job, very professional presentation, and a nice build. Believe it or not my brothers and I build these kind of go karts 50 years ago, foot steering with string to control the gas throttle, no brakes, to expensive. We used the motor to slow down then dragged our feet on the pavement to stop. Worn out a lot of shoes. The rich kids got the steel go karts that were really build by their dads. You've got a great mind.
This video really helps me. Thanks
Awesome, such a creative kid that isn't wasting his time on video games good job man! That's a good kart for smaller kids cause if your going to role it just jump off XD nice video very instructive.
great job Eric 😁
Definetely going to build one!!
thank you for making the videos. I did finish it and my first drive was a little painful because my leg slipped and got in the front wheel but got out of hospital after 5 days. But when i came back and started driving it on the road. People were like can i try it please and i had to give it because there was too many. Then a 15 years old guy came and when he was driving it he tried to steal it. unfortunately he had an accident and fall down on a sea from a bridge and broke my kart. but i loved the first drive. Again thank you soooo much for making this video.
best go kart I've ever seen!
This is very good i am making a go kart myself and this came in handy. GOOD JOB!!
Good show, young man. You're very knowledgeable and competent in that knowledge as you explain your creation. Thanks for sharing. I've been thinking of doing something similar for my grandson. I will pour through your build vids and see what I do. Again, thanks, great ingenuity on your part.
Wo man.. It is awesome.. Inspired me
Good luck
How are your parents liking the go cart spinning out all over their beautiful manicured lawn? Lol. Great job Eric, be careful and have fun.
i loveed your work n am gonna try this in ma vacations thanks 2 u guyzz for havin me dis wonderful video
Eric, you are a BOSS! This is the first video I have watched on your channel, but you have a new subscriber. Thanks for the informative video series. There is nothing negative about a person (especially a young person) building something for the fun and enjoyment of themselves and others. Now, I'm going back to like the first two videos, because I forgot to.
Great videos dude keep it up
built something similar when i was young but we couldn't afford any fancy go-cart parts like centrifugal clutches and sprockets, or even chain... my dad was working for a company that was constantly disposing of 8hp vertical shaft briggs engines so my dad brought them home and we would tear them all apart and assemble functioning engines from what we had. learned how to make gaskets with a hammer. used plenty of permatex to seal them up. my dad was a packrat and had a pretty well stocked workshop and junkpile, what we built was a wood frame with the same foot-steered straight axle but we used shopping cart wheels screwed directly into the end grain of the 2x4 wood with big lag screws.. the rear live axle came from a riding lawnmower along with the tires, we welded on a v-belt pulley in the center. the seat was on top of the rear axle, the engine was up front and mounted to plywood with slotted holes and a vertical lever in front of the driver that moved the engine to act as a clutch with the long v-belt that twisted 90 degrees to transmit the power. the throttle was a modified schwinn brake lever and cable mounted to the engine moving lever. the belts were used to rotate the flywheel on a punch press before we got them, they were used but still usable for us kids. we never did come up with a brake that actually worked, we had a lever on each side that would drag a hardwood 'shoe' for lack of a better term, directly on the road or dirt surface.. but it didn't really matter because top speed was not very fast, maybe 30mph flat out and most of the time you were putting along slowly due to having no proper brakes.. but, it was still fun to build your own car out of crap.
This is awesome
Great job men
Good build
Neat little project :-).
Looks fun
I'm 24 and you my friend explained this very well for me. thank you. Beat video on tgis topic ive seen in 4 days. And ive been hunting.
L8ter friend.
Great job! and be careful out there....
Nice house!
U rock dude love ya
DIS IZ SO KEWL. I'm currently making my own gokart with my neighbor, I might use some ideas here
I wish i was as talented as you!
Crash it Break it Let it Fall Apart, That's what SCARS are for! Memories Sweet Memories .............
Good job
good job buddy
This is so cool. Thank you for sharing. I am an ameture carpenter and I co-own a small engine repair shop. This would be a great project for me and my 11year old Son. He has an engerneering mind set. It looks fun.
Yet it's a great one bro
Good Job Bud
Nice dude ! Thanks for the info to!
Very cool. I used to build wooden carts as a kid. Never had an engine on one but we have lots of hills where I lived. Pull it up, race down. If you build another cart read up on caster and camber. Camber probably isn't necessary but caster might be quite helpful
Awesome video I just found out about your videos I'm glad I found your channel
***** I do a lot
nice, love it!
good job
I love your videos
That's so cool!!!!! :D
Well done I hope you go from strength to strength.
wow I made me one super fun thanks man cep up the good work and you make some very cool stuff very cool man like it
So nice
Most go karts u turn with hands and control throttle with feet. You did it the other way around. Kind of cool.
Looks like ALOT of fun.. :D:D
Hi Eric. I really like this. Firstly I want to say thanks. I can see that there has been a huge amount of work that you've put into this. Both the Go-cart - and the video also. You have a very informative way of demonstrating and communicating, which makes it very easy to follow your instructions. I hope this project gave you the satisfaction that you deserve. It looks like a lot of fun to ride. My challenge to you would be to set up a business where you package up the parts (various models from tots to teens) and market and sell them to people who want to "make" their own. Maybe that's not something of interest to you at this stage - if so, that's fine of course - with the skills that you have in both construction and communication I'm certain that you'll have a very successful career no matter what you put your mind to. Keep up the great work.
Next thing is to connect it to a lawnmower. :-)
thank you I can't wait to build a go kart😉😊
Around 1972 my friend and me built a wood kart two seater, passenger behind the driver. It looked really strange, but we burned up the neighborhood, on the streets. No helmets, some cuts. Looks like wood karts still exist.
Great. Just been and bought the timber..but I wish you would answer the questions posted in these comments..need info on the type of rear wheels and axle.
Great video well done! how about wooden rack and pinion style steering?
hey bro u are genius
Looks awesome, planning on building one of these, but I can't figure out what the 'keystock' is for or what I do with them, or how some are optional... help! :)
Nice job, My son is working on the same
thank you
i like how you made that go kart and i will make my own
