My latest (and only) rickshaw project



Name came from the poem by e.e. cummings

Officially christened into the fleet in a wash of foamy Schlitz 06-09-07

It was painted with "livestock markers"(not recommended) and iron on refective material (not recommended) (its sticking so well to the round parts of the frame - due to lack of heat from trying to iron round parts) and all the jewels were stuck on using silicone glue. The trike maintenence itself (not recommended)is intensely fidgetty and requires alot of strange hack methods... :-) oh, and driving the thing is also not recommended. (Steel is flexi, tubes are leaky, steering is highly affected by sideward slopes and "the crown in the road" constuction is a bit... how do you say... shoddy... but beggars can't be choosers)

But it sure is pretty! and sparkly!
