anthony belcher asked “can you make a large model solar car, body made from cardboard, size 25cm long by 15cm wide, small electric engine, garden solar light panel, wheels made from cds, bbq sticks for axles, drinking straws at either end, no battery fitted.”
Those details were very similar to the car I made for Evonne Patawaran https://youtu.be/sJwEf5hQ3iw apart from the body was a 2 litre pop bottle so I tried to make this one look a little different with some green sticky backed holographic paper.
I am a bit short of CDs again so I pinched the wheels from this project that I did a few days ago.
