Spinning a Wheel

Dream.png

Hello, my dear readers!

How you doing? Ready to see how a dream car looks like? Let's make and play.

Right now we're having an awful thunder with non-stop lightning and hail, and I'm worried about my husband how he'll get home by feet without umbrella. And while I'm waiting lets's see what did he made. That's something really cool:

This is the most interesting part - when the finish line is within your view.



Wheels

They have no rubber tires but as for the rest they are very close. I can see the break shoes, besides back and front wheels are different.

All right. Now, to install our wheels, we need ...

Tools

From a wooden plate...

... to this lovely toolbox 🥰. I guess this is the first tollbox in my life I call lovely 😆

Of course, we will need a jack! They've got it all worked out.

What else's missing?

Seats

They have moving parts also.

Now they are installed. Seats have an armrest and head restraints, and seat back is adjustable. So the driver can reach fire extinguisher and first aid kit. I mad about these fine details 😋

Not only trunk, but also front bamper is curved a little.

Allright. We've got a straight-eight engine at the front, a manual gearbox in the middle, and drive goes to the back. Let's start it!



I'll be honest. This model was the second model that Nick assembled. He started with the first one from an advanced level, and made a few mistakes. His first truck should've been able to drive at least a half of a meter from a clockwork, but no. So, this time we both were excited about first drive.

Car haven't moved. Nick checked out the gear stick. It has 3 positions: back, forward and neutral.

Let's go and check under the hood.

By the way, the jack works as designed, it spuns and lifts the car. Man, I love it 🖤

And we have three home helpers. You ready know red Sonya. Mary wears white had (good girl), and Liza is a little princess with a teddy bear. They are ready to help and solve the problem with gear 😁

In a few moments our dream car started! It drives back and forward, and everything's okay.

Do you think I can let these tree little ladies drive to the party? 🥳🎉🎈

That's all, folks! Work is finished. And you know, despite of hard work and tedious attention to details, it was an activity that brings relax and peace. And respect and admiration of the really cool job that this startup from Ukraine has made. Now, when the job is completed, I smell fresh wood each time I come into the room...


Thanks a lot for sharing this fascinating process with me.
