Step 9Top HINGE LASHING
Then I lashed on two more sticks with bicycle innertubes to complete the fame. I thought it was temporary but after some tests and more lashing it was good enough. Here it is after the rides you saw in the video.
As you can see, the lashing at the top is a bit strange. It sort of slipped into that configuration and works really well. There's cord around the thin part of the HANDLEBAR, and a big ball of innertube lashing around that between it and the top FRAME STICKS. This lets you steer and also move the HANDLEBARS up and down relative to the top FRAME STICKS.
Don't think too much about how you make this lashing, just do it. It'll naturally get itself into this condition.
Enjoy! Let me know how things go with your Hydrothopter project!
