    Now that is awesome - What did I make in woodwork? A rubbish SNES storage system that got burnt the following bonfire night.

    I bet HSE will have a field day before he's allowed to ride that on the road

    Re: High school student builds wooden bicycle

    Engage wooden brakes on wooden wheels to start onboard heater

    Nice piece of woodwork there though! The school I went to would never have allowed it, in my day at least, unless I'd assisted in paying for supplies
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    0iD: Plus weeing in it every now & again does it good
    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.
