All plans wil be available at the end of the series🤟🏼 im thinking 25$ will be a fair price, since it took a lot of work to make them. Im using 35mm tube, but there will also ba a set for 1 1/2 tubing. Thanks for the support everyone!✌🏻
This is awesome! I can't wait to build one! What are you going to be using for the rear axle? Something custom or some axle shafts attached to tubing with a gear drive?
The planning and technical forethought of this build really sets it apart. I just found your channel and I gotta say, you are one impressive fabricator.
Man i can not imagine the amount of work you must have had to put into making those plans thank you for sharing with us all the hard work you have done we greatly appreciate everything
The results would be impressive for any fab shop. The idea this kid is doing all of this with such minimal tools is remarkable! You need to hit up some of the tool suppliers and get some level of sponsorship. What you’d be able to achieve with a decently equipped shop would be insane!
Very impressive engineering, fixturing and fabrication. Keep up the great videos! There was one part that made me cringe - when you used the level as a hammer to align the rear upper shock posts.
Great work with a minimum amount of equipment and very straight forward methodology. I thought your "lift the frame" to set up the front lower A frame at an angle (to get some anti dive?) was inspired. Hope you are headed to a really good engineering school- you have the right sort of mind and a genius for practical application!
He does a great job on his angles which I have never seen the sleeve used like that. Really a good idea. The guy has some talent for sure. I am really impressed.
SO appreciate you making these plans available. As soon as my shop is done ill be starting this project, trying to decide between all electric or hybrid electric, will depend on what i end up getting for range. Either way excited to be able to finally build something i saw a video for lol
I just found your channel. You are one talented young man. I don't know if you realize how inspiring you are to so many of us. Cheers from the Pacific Northwest in the USA. Sub'd.
This is the first video of yours that I came across. I'll finish it and then go back and start from the beginning. What you do is inspirational to me, as I want to design and build my vehicle projects. Good on ya!
You are an impressive young man. I'm a 60+ motorsports fan and am looking forward to building your crosscart for my nieces. Amazing job. Keep up the good work!!
Nice build! Can I give you a tip for welding galvanized bolts or nuts? Just let them soak in a water and citric acid. You can buy the acid as a powder for cleaning coffee machines. You will get much beter welds this way. Greetings from Belgium.
Impressive work for your age, you have a great future ahead of you. Keep up the good work! Hope to see what you can build with a full array of tools and shop.
Really nice work. Count me in. Near the end of this video, consider using a "high misalignment" bushing for the rod end where the bolt head is in the way. The bushings fit into the spherical rod end and allow the sphere to turn a couple more degrees for more angle (up to 30*). This type of bushing will typically reduce the size of the fastening bolt by 1 size. I used this type of bushings on my CBR1000F leaning trike.
You should also reconsider front shock upper brackets design. Add a vertical pipe between lower frame and mid frame. And make a triangular bracket for front shock, and weld that bracket to the vertical pipe. (The same way you have made rear suspension arm mounting points.)
Wow, considering all the incompetency exposed here in the US this year you have renewed my faith in mankind. I'm quite a bit older than you but our standard was what yours is. My father and probably your grandfather fought for your standards for the whole world. It is so sad how much of it has been squandered away here in 60 years. Keep safe and healthy and thanks so much for sharing.
these videos are awesome! great job. you are so talented with an angle grinder. i would live to see you make a video on how to use and angle grinder and the different wheels you use on angle grinder
Using motorcycle forks for rear suspension is a cool idea. I would have never thought of that. Guess that’s why I’m watching your vid and you’re not watching mine.
I really liked your blue frog project with use of patterns to cut tube joins. Now this project documented with plans and videos is a must. Sure you will have more subscribers with such quality. I will definitely buy plans for it, also plans for blue frog if available one day.
Nice build ever seen and wish one day of put in 250cc 4stroke motor in to be sweet ride one of theses would be more fun to have a blast along the dunes awesome plan buddy keep it up with many more descent builds cheers
Love the design and the methods of manufacture, and admire your skills. As a motorcyclist, I have to let you know that the road bike forks you are using for the rear suspension only have about 100mm of travel before the spring binds and bottoms out. If you want to get the full travel from your A-arms, you will have to use dirt bike forks that have about 250mm of travel. Top job though, well done.
Really appreciate your updates on the time line. Now that you have your new lathe built I imagine you may be able to use it and also make improvements where you can. Have you done a short video on yourself, just introduce yourself, where you live, work or at school, occupation, influences etc as it would be nice to meet you
Great job love the idear or using the front shocks for the rear suspension brilliant..Love your welding helmet i have one just the same.Like your home made lathe you need to build a bench to get it up off the floor.Love your work..
The plans will be great and I can't wait but have you thought about plans for the tube bender and lathe? I watched the bender video but plans would be awesome and not many people have access to a lathe. Maybe a package deal with the cart plans at a higher price?
Even in a DIY workshop, German Engineering is precise! Beautiful work. I'm only worried about how you welded.the nuts to the tube for the inner rose.joint on the a arms, should have put the nut inside the tube for more strength and maybe make few small holes to plug weld also. But excellent design!
Front suspension lower mounting brackets are missing structural continuity when using the mid hole. You should redesign it so that there is material between mid hole and lower arm pipes.
can’t wait for these plans! You need to start a patreon account to be supported $$ I will be the first person to sign up! I have been putting a plan together for a while now to build a 2 seat kart just like this but have not yet found a set of plans that I wanted to purchase that fit my needs until I saw your videos! I think this would be more than wide enough currently to be a 2 seater. Would the front roll cage pillars need to be adjusted for seeing ahead while driving?
Very cool I'd definitely would of made threaded bushing to slide into the pipe to attach swing arms to hinmen joints. I wouldn't trust welded nuts to thin wall pipe
You should find a vendor that can sell tubing kits for you. CNC bent tubing is pretty easy once you have the 3D cad... which you do. And all the flat steel parts.

Hello
@@yanethcolocho4011 hola
Where'd you go to do the cutouts
Someone sponsor this guys and get him some equipment. Super impressive dude nice work!!
Totally agree, his work and ideas deserve sponsorship
His planning and home made jigs and templates is so badass. Much better work than some others on TH-cam
Professional equipment is an insult for artists like him
Especially a mandrel tubing bender😬
All you have to do is buy his set of plans which are very affordable
All plans wil be available at the end of the series🤟🏼 im thinking 25$ will be a fair price, since it took a lot of work to make them. Im using 35mm tube, but there will also ba a set for 1 1/2 tubing. Thanks for the support everyone!✌🏻
Quick question: how tall are you?
195cm
@@homemade_madness ohhh nice soo I would fit in too if I build one my self! Thanks for the information!
Btw what kind of engine you are going to put in it?
This is awesome! I can't wait to build one! What are you going to be using for the rear axle? Something custom or some axle shafts attached to tubing with a gear drive?
Great design, incredible talent!! I'm a 62 year old kid, sooo....It looks like I'm going to have to make room for a new project!
Nice!🤟🏼🤟🏼

My favorite part of this whole series so far is you using the level as a hammer. Looking forward to the next vids
😅😅😅
When your a fabricator everything in reach is a hammer😂
This is very impressive, the amount of things you can get done with just minimal tools is amazing! Great JOB!!
Very impressive engineering, fixturing and fabrication. Keep up the great videos!
There was one part that made me cringe - when you used the level as a hammer to align the rear upper shock posts.
I laughed at that part 😂😂😊
Oh boy, Me too. I care for my tools.
can't wait for these plans, thankyou for taking the time, I'm in outback Australia and have plenty of room for toys like this.
Looking forward to part 3. Thanks for sharing your plans with us.

As a fellow gear head, I can sit and watch this all day.
Awesome work. The definition of measure twice and cut once.
Brother, we need more of these. dont let this channel die.
SO appreciate you making these plans available. As soon as my shop is done ill be starting this project, trying to decide between all electric or hybrid electric, will depend on what i end up getting for range. Either way excited to be able to finally build something i saw a video for lol

This guy is one hell of a good fabricator !!!!!! Hats off to ya 👍👍👍😊
I love the thought that went into this project. Great job!
Those weldings without gloves make me chills 😂 Brilliant job dude, as always!
This here is some serious can-do skill, great job, inspiring to see!
You are an impressive young man. I'm a 60+ motorsports fan and am looking forward to building your crosscart for my nieces. Amazing job. Keep up the good work!!
Looking pretty good, I like the paper cut out's idea, looks like it works...

Nice job, young man. Very professional. Gongrats!
We are all impressed... and salivating.... MORE VIDEOS PLEASE!
I'll be waiting for the plans to come out, can't wait. Your awesome, keep up the good work
Outstanding young fella, I agree someone sponsor him, he has talent.
I'm amazed with the creativity and ingenuity
Awesome video, After looking and watching, almost All day I finally found this 1. Great in depth and step by step, easy to fallow.
this paper method is next level yoo!!
This man is a GOD with an angle grinder!
Neat and awesome work, very easy to follow your build! You actually make building this beast look so freaking easy!
If anyone is interested, once the plans are released, I can CNC plasma cut all of the flat brackets and ship out as a single package.
How much would that cost?
Stuart where are you located?
Stuart, I'm interested. can you give us an estimate and lead time?
Are you still offering this?
Making progress and looking good, thank you!
great job over there!!!! 25 bucks is a fair price!! keep going!!!
Me gustó mucho tu ingenio ,, buen trabajo 😎👌👏👏👏👏👏

a very special result my friend 😎👍👍👍
I love the rear shock idea, you could probably get some cool spring that fit over the bike shock and make your own coilovers
I love that metal lathe you made! I'm gonna have to make one now but controlled with a VFD
man your buggy is amazing i liked it greetings from panama
You should also reconsider front shock upper brackets design. Add a vertical pipe between lower frame and mid frame. And make a triangular bracket for front shock, and weld that bracket to the vertical pipe. (The same way you have made rear suspension arm mounting points.)
Absolutely fantastic once again 👏
Will def get your plans if I can make building one feesable. Nice work. Looks great.
A well made video! Great job. The good thing is once your done you can take it for a spin!!!
Exelente trabajo saludos de México city . 🇲🇽 👍
my goal is to be as good as you.keep up the great work

🤙🏻 Sick music at the start of the video
Love the build detail. I’m currently making a Hybrid Cross Kart and was wondering how you came up with your suspension geometry.
Lange aflevering vindt ik het leukst mooi bezig 👌🏻👌🏻💪🏻💪🏻

You deserve so much more viewers man 👌 you are really impressive 😳 Great work continue like this 💪
ill be using some of these techniques while building my dune buggy. nice video 👍
Dude! This is an amazing project. Can't wait for the plans. Have you thought about doing the same process for a mini-bike? I'd buy those too.
yeah do it
Subscribed cant wait for more. Looks great so far!
Just came across your channel. Immediately subscribed and impressed with your channel and builds!
✌🏻✌🏻
Looks great, would love to build one someday
I really liked your blue frog project with use of patterns to cut tube joins. Now this project documented with plans and videos is a must. Sure you will have more subscribers with such quality. I will definitely buy plans for it, also plans for blue frog if available one day.
No questions asked it’s awesome, great vids too!!
I'm subscribing.. I just found your channel, and all i have got to say it's good job sir 👏
Wonderful work skill 👌
Subbed and like this whole series!!! Great job!
Frame looks sturdy and nice
Nice build ever seen and wish one day of put in 250cc 4stroke motor in to be sweet ride one of theses would be more fun to have a blast along the dunes awesome plan buddy keep it up with many more descent builds cheers
Thank You again for your time !
When’s the plans ready this man going to be loaded we all want plans

Top job though, well done.
You are amazing…So intelligent…Thank you
ты хороший мастер. удачи мой брат. ✊😉
Hey i bought plans but i need to know about the hardware to use. do you use m16 bolts and nuts the whole way through the video? thanks
Thanks Bro,
I get knowledge from your project💡👍👍👍
wear gloves bro😎
$150 for all of that??? that is insane xD so helpful!
Really appreciate your updates on the time line. Now that you have your new lathe built I imagine you may be able to use it and also make improvements where you can. Have you done a short video on yourself, just introduce yourself, where you live, work or at school, occupation, influences etc as it would be nice to meet you
Excellent work! What's the quad for the front shocks?
Great job love the idear or using the front shocks for the rear suspension brilliant..Love your welding helmet i have one just the same.Like your
home made lathe you need to build a bench to get it up off the floor.Love your work..
So amazing your diy
It good to know your channel
Have you considered making plans for a two seater? I'd be interested.
Looks good!
Take my money. And soon. I need something to do in the winter.
Молодец, очень хорошо получается. Так держать, слежу за проектом не смотря на то что не знаю английского, хорошая работа
The plans will be great and I can't wait but have you thought about plans for the tube bender and lathe? I watched the bender video but plans would be awesome and not many people have access to a lathe. Maybe a package deal with the cart plans at a higher price?
How many meters of tube did you use?
are you goin to have a set of plans that are converted in to inches
Even in a DIY workshop, German Engineering is precise! Beautiful work. I'm only worried about how you welded.the nuts to the tube for the inner rose.joint on the a arms, should have put the nut inside the tube for more strength and maybe make few small holes to plug weld also. But excellent design!

I think I will be coming back for more, you and Mike Festiva have a lot of the same,New Zealand
Very cool I'd definitely would of made threaded bushing to slide into the pipe to attach swing arms to hinmen joints. I wouldn't trust welded nuts to thin wall pipe
