Steampunk Segway
A friend of mine referred me to this Steampunk version of a Segway. He’s calling it the Legway:
A self balancing, human powered, steampunk styled, Segway. All you need is a brave self balancing human. This is the ultimate green vehicle for all you eco conscious steampunkers. Is that an oxymoron? I made this out of mostly found materials. This was my first steampunk styled build. Any good suggestions on making it look better will be incorporated as long as the materials are cheap and easy to find. I have been calling it the Legway in reference to the propulsion method. Yes, I know about those Lego self balancers of the same name.
Here is a video of it in action:
I know that using this gadget is MORE difficult than walking or running the same speed, but it looks so very AWESOME! I begged Mike to make me one for our Halloween party, but he said that I wasn’t allowed to ride it around the house.
I guess I’ll just have to admire it from afar.
