As well as the bike I have these two pieces of kit which get used as part of my job.

The golf buggy gets used as a wheel barrow on jobs, and the forklift just makes my life easier in the work shop. Does anyone else have any battery operated machinery/vehicles.

I have a 2 KW, 11.2 Joule demolition SDS hammer drill and into the chuck, by means of a special adaptor, fits a 1" diameter x 6" long piece of wooden doweling which has been tightly bound with razor wire. I keep this handy just in case Chris Huhne should happen to be in the neighbourhood.

Now what wouldn't I give for a golf buggy. Like many in Tewkesbury, I live in an alley. Mine's one of the wider ones at about 5 foot between house railings. Everything - including furniture, building materials etc. has to be carried from the nearest road by a variety of barrows, carts, trolleys etc. A neighbour recently had a miniature digger in to landscape her back garden; it very nearly got stuck in the space between two houses, which is only about 3 foot wide. In another alley, a resident has a mobility scooter fitted with a tipping garden trailer.
As a donkey (as used in Chalford, Stroud) would be difficult to maintain, a pickup-bodied golf buggy would be ideal. Wonder if I can get the town council interested?

I have an electric outboard motor for my dinghy. I made the 30aH 12v battery from recycled ebike battery cells. It works a treat and th battery only weighs about 2kg.

Yes, it counts, but we better not ask what Lynda and Hatti have.

I don't own this anymore, annoyingly it's parked in a warehouse just out side of Seattle:( in need of a minor repair, but there's no one out there who can be bothered to fix it or even drive it when it fixed. The girl in the picture is 17 now;)

I built this 17 years ago from 20mm steel box section chassis, ally sheet body and two wheelchair motors, one for each of the rear wheels.
