ASSIGNMENT + CONCEPT

For the introduction to wood workshop we were asked to design and build a small car. The car should have a width of 75 mm.

I first drew and cut out the shape of the car and then drilled the holes and indentations for the wheels. Then I shaped the whole thing and sanded the edges and surfaces with sandpaper. In the end, the wood was oiled. My car has a massage function, e.g. you can drive it up and down your back. That’s why I lowered the wheels and added a handle. At the same time, the space under the handle looks like the cars window.
