The Mobile Ice Cream Cone
Maker Faire Bay Area 2015
May 15th-17th
Inspired by the muffin cars, we built a mobile ice cream cone. Like most of our projects, we try to re-purpose materials and keep costs down, using old motorized wheelchairs and scooters for motors, wheels, batteries and controls, scrapped plywood to build a base and top ring of the frame and scrapped sheet metal to cover the exterior. The base the waffle pattern created by paint and floor transition strips. The ice cream top foam base is from old spa covers covered with material and foam.
