Powered Hitch-lift for Three-wheel Handcycle
Intro: Powered Hitch-lift for Three-wheel Handcycle
Over the past decade or so, I've "designed" several projects, but have only built a couple. Consequently, I can't legitimately publish Instructables for my ideas, since I don't actually know whether they can be built. However, I can publish slideshows of the cool drawings I've made :-)
This is a design for a three-wheel handcycle, which is intended to be used without assistance by the rider, with a powered lift and lever-controlled actuator.
Technical NotesAll of these drawings were done using the Unix |xfig| utility.
My guess as to a "complete" parts list suggests that the project would cost well over $600, comparable to the price of a commercial "scooter lift" for a car.

You wrote, "It'd be cool to see some projects from the drawing board to finished products." That's why I introduced this slide show the way I did. I have done a number of these sorts of project designs, but the only ones that have actually hit reality are my crib modification and my snowboard binding fixture. The rest are still just on paper.
