Long Andre

Description

• Building a long john-type caro bike according to these:
  • http://www.werkstatt-lastenrad.de/index.php?title=Long_Andr%C3%A9
  • http://www.werkstatt-lastenrad.de/index.php?title=Haptische_Bibliothek:_Werkstatt-K%C3%A4rtchen_zum_Bau_von_Long_Andr%C3%A9
  • http://www.werkstatt-lastenrad.de/index.php?title=Bauanleitung:_Long-Andr%C3%A9
• This is not a typical Hackerspace project, but more a typical "offene Werkstatt" project for the very young [UCmakerspace].
• Making roadworthy vehicles is delicate enough not to improvise too much at first. Hence, this project is currently being led in a spirit of carefully reproducing what's been luckily well-enough documented.

Goal

• make a 1st working prototype of a Long André
• organize Long André manufacturing workshops

Obstacles

• documentation must be translated first (pending)

Component

• BOM & list of needed tools are the first things that will be translated

Schedule

• Opening: May 2015
• Ending: ?

Participants

• Léonard (Leader, UCmakerspace guest)
• Marc Wettstein (UCmakerspace boss)
• The Werkstatt Lastenrad people in Germany, with whom emails are being exchanged: Christophe Vaillant, André Frieböse, Tom Hansing, Thomas Viebach
