Bike Blender

Transform an electric blender into a mechanically pedal powered bike blender.

Step 1: Obtain an electric blender working or not

You can use any electric blender really. I will describe the process I used which can be applied to any blender. Preferably not working since if it is not working you are about to give it a second life.

One blender I tried didn't work though because I couldn't remove the top wheel from the shaft. This is the only thing that will prohibit the blender from being used- is if the components won't disassemble after trying EVERYTHING!!

I used a blender that was relatively old. I don't have a picture of it in its original state but the idea is you want a blender who's bottom can be removed and mechanical insides exposed to be modified.

If you could paint as well, you would be able to paint, exercise, and make blended drinks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvbL_5rH1QQ

Great build! How many RPM do you reckon the blades will reach? L

Why are you wearing a helmet in step 3 using tools, but not in step 10 where you are actually riding a bike?

I'd like to see this turning up on cookery shows;

"Give the ingredients about 3 miles in the blender..."
