Battery Boxes Completed


As you can see, the frame is starting to look less like a ladder and more like a go kart. Several days ago, the basic frame structure was finished and the first battery box was welded in between where the motor will be mounted and where the rider will sit.



Tonight, I cut and welded together two more battery boxes. I will weld these boxes onto either side of the frame. Although we haven't had much time to work on the kart over the last week or so, I am optimistic that more progress will be made shortly. Today I ordered a set of wheels and steering assembly off eBay. Once these parts arrive, it shouldn't be too long before a rolling frame is completed. In the next couple of days, expect to see the battery boxes attached, a motor mount constructed, and work being done to build/attach a seat for the rider.
