Awesome job! I'd recommend moving the drill lower to improve stability and eliminate the torque issues with the drill extensions. The drill could be mounted in front of the front wheel so the weight of the drill is lower and better balanced left to right. It would be further improved by driving the rear wheel as the inertia of the drill would not be connected to the steering assembly. Any significant mass in the steering assembly can lead to over steering. Teflon tubing would probably work for routing the throttle to the rear wheel area, Props to you for showing the first board break, we have all been there...
That's so cool who would have thought that my DeWalt drill could drive a scooter? That's a great prototype additional improvements could really make this a fun DIY project to build and modify.
This is the most pointless thing I've ever seen and I love it. It's really neat seeing the things that can be made possible with a 3D printer.

The difference between an industrial designer & an engineer :-) Bending inertia I= (B*H³)/12 - notice how the height is cubed! That is why the board was cupped to increase the height with the same amount of material. I did not understand why the board width had to be reduced. Still this build is very good ;-) and the fix was a nice Queen truss - at the expense of road clearance ;-)

@@PWARHOLM I suppose Alexandre reduced the width to have it look more like a traditional scooter, or to have it being more manageable. Also that's the inertia of a square section, I don't wanna calculate the inertia of the true section but it's a nice approximate. plus i gotta admit, the truss was a smart way to fix the bending problem, altho if I was him I would've used a smaller truss

It does have brakes. You can press on the rear wheel with your foot, the shoe's rubber sole will slow it down and won't make you fall since it's the rear wheel stopping/slowing down.

Simple brake, put a thin metal plate over the rear wheel such that when you stand on it it contacts the rear wheel to slow you and when you take your foot off it will spring free of the wheel. Love the build and the amount of insane laughter it generated. Keep up the good work.

I love the idea with the locking hex nut in the vice to be able to file the hex part of the axle.
I think your gas handle design with the string is genius! Very good use of the capabilities of a 3d printer as well!
Clever use of the one way bearing. But as you mention, it's sketchy. That drill extension wobbling during use ... and turning completely exposed to the elements ... hope no plastic bag or piece of cloth comes near that or it'll get pretty wrapped! If the drill torque effect on steering is too strong ... have you considered making a rear wheel drive version ? And ... why the hell doesn't it have two handles? It kinda triggers my OCD

Make me wonder if a can use a drill to power my wheel barrel. But I would need some gearing.
Problem: *exists* Alexandre: „I got a solution for that, I 3D printed this...“
That was pretty cool. You're just a grown up kid really but I bet you were a mad scientist in a previous lifetime. Well done on a beautiful piece of engineering.
I never really thought of drill powered homemade vehicles as reasonable, but with the position and the ability to remove the drill, I think this is a great concept- an electric scooter that you don’t have to buy with a motor and electronics
Amazing! I'm suddenly looking at my Dewalt with a weird grin :D. With that gas system couldn't the drill be attached all the way down as well? Or even holding the drill at the back.. soo many ideas. I agree with so many other comments.. I don't understand how this channel has under 100k subscribers. The content is right up there with Tested, TOT, Diresta, Alec Steele etc...

Have you considered making a thick double deck that would encompass the drill? Maybe disassemble it to reduce footprint
The concave of a skateboard is where it gets its strength. Cutting down the sides like that takes a lot of its strength out
Stop using a metal hammer for this kind of work, look into a Silicon one? Like window glazers use..

Awesomeness me build! I you ever decide to change things up I suggest mounting the drill as close to the wheel as possible. The long extensions are stealing some of your power from the drill. That's why your handle bars are twisting so hard. Also since you have a lot of torque, maybe try making some gears that are shiftable with your foot.
That’s a lot of perfect fits
