  • If your canoe weighs 40kg, a canoe cart is more than a nice option!😅 This is how you build a canoe cart from a broken children's bike and roof battens and just somme common tools.

    A solid axle will solve the problem. Build your frame over the axle and pull the canoe with the paddle. A simple arrangement of U shaped bolts will hold the axle. The paddle bracket on the bow of the canoe could be something imaginative and fun. A small carved Viking dragon? Love the idea of upgrading the canoe until you have the best version, then build a second with what you've improved. 👍 😃

    Maybe placing one wheel at the very end of the canoe would increase stability.
    One wheel at the end near the anchoring, the 2 other wheels around the 3/5th of length point.

    Schönes Video, Felix.
    Klasse deine Karre fürs Kanu!
    Öhm, wenn du die karre >Modifizieren< möchtest, damit es hinterm Fahrrad passt. Würde ich hinten eine Halterung bauen, wo ein Sackkarrenrad befestigt ist damit es keinen Bodenkontakt hat. Vorne am Kanu, leimst du noch ein Stück Dachlatte drauf. Dann mit einem Schlangenbohrer ein loch bohren, wo du ein Rohrstück rein schlagen kannst. Aus ein anderem Rohr (was passend durch das kleine Rohrstück passt), schneidest du unten ein Gewinde drauf. Wo eine Schraube drauf kommt. Am anderen Ende ein 90° Bogen, das du es am Drahtesel befestigen kannst.

    I wonder if the wheels had a long axle that went through both wheels if that would create more stability. Also creating angle or cross members on the cart may help.

  • @krazmokramer
    @krazmokramer Před 2 lety +5

    I enjoyed this series very much! Thank you Felix! For stability of the canoe, how about one or two removable outriggers like they use in the Pacific Islands and Hawaii? These could be easily assembled/disassembled for transportation. Also would be light weight. Just a thought for a low budget solution.

    Totally giving me ideas. Like houseboat ideas. Popular mechanics ideas. I assume the idea could be scaled and multiplied to make pontoons. With a pony truck underneath. I’d bet it could be amphibious. I’ve seen some turn bicycles wheels into paddle wheels or even propellers. Especially what you have made is simmer in design to a Roman barge. Lapped planks with no caulking. The Romans used tenon joints to fix things together. I bet you could use screws spaced 250mm- 300mm apart in pre-drilled holes no glue needed. Oh and this guy czcams.com/video/bFhnt3JUuL8/video.html. Might just give you a few ideas.

    Nice work Felix. I think you could sturdy the whole thing up with a steel bar about 12-15mm diameter (or to match the receiving diameter on the wheel to act as an axle and attach to your frame to bear the majority of the weight in transport. You can still make it a break-down model that way. Maybe attaching a floor within your frame would add more frfame stability and capacity. Love your videos Felix.

    I am thinking that a length of threaded rod, (Also called "Allthread") running thru the frame, from one side through the other, with ends sticking out to act as axles, for the wheels, would add stability and alignment. On another issue, I bought the large SAK, with wood scales. I love the larger blade and, especially, the longer saw. I would like to be able to mount a tweezers and toothpick, and, even one of those ferro rods that fit in the toothpick slot. Could I talk you into showing me how it might be done? It sounds like something "right up your alley" as we say here.
