How to Make an Awesome Wooden Bike Basket

  • I made myself a super cool wooden bike basket for my electric bike. It's definitely much fancier than it needs to be, but who cares? It was a really fun build.
    Normally I create my projects in Fusion 360, and then build them from precise plans I generate. This time, though, I just kind of made it up as I went along. I tried to show my thought process in the video, let me know if you like this sort of thing, and if it was clear the way I was working things out in my head.
    NOTE: this bike basket is pretty big, since I sized it for my camera bag, and is also HEAVY. Since it's for my electric bike, I didn't really bother about the weight. If I were going to make one for my regular bike, I'd make it MUCH lighter.

    Gorgeous. I started watching this thinking I could make my own basket and ended thinking "no way" - or at least no way as nice as this!

    That is a beautiful piece of work. I think every domino user gets to experience the pleasure of that moment when you realise that you forgot to move the depth stop for the shallow mortice. I made some dominos out of a contrasting timber, hammered them in, cut them flush and pretended it was a design feature!

      That is exactly the way to do it!

      This is how I discovered through domino joinery. 😅. It’s not a defect it’s a feature

    Nice looking project. As a wood butcher I would have used plywood with glue and screws, and then covered my sins with paint.

    Awesome video, It's exactly what I'm looking for, I wanna put my 38lb dog in it when he gets tired.
    I really wish you had made a blueprint/pdf which makes it easier for the average DIY'er like myself to follow along
    Looks soo nice

      im struggling to figure out what your favorite things are. “all” implies at least 3 things.. so uh... woodworking, biking, and.. baskets?

    What was that lil box you used to measure the tape lines?

  • @gottliebheinrich8413
    @gottliebheinrich8413 2 роки тому

    fine!
    but the taillight would be better protected when still on the old hight but more backwards shifted to be in line with the back of the basket.
    (this way it would be also be more reflecting rays of the head lights of following vehicles)
    putting the lock on the basket is surely practically.

    Looks nice. But too heavy for a bike rack. And won’t hold up to rain. But looks nice.

  • @ralfvk.4571
