Build your own electric go kart. This is a great home project that can be built with simple hand tools and is fun way to teach kids about basic design and engineering principles. The best bit is that they get to drive the finished product! The plans are fully dimensioned and include many detailed drawings to show how the components fit together. All the kart materials are readily available and low cost. Even if you're thinking about designing your own kart, get a copy of our plans, they will show you how to overcome many common kart building issues. Our design features a welded steel frame and makes a great welding project. The kart can be built with MIG, TIG or stick welding processes. Above all building a kart is a great fun and will act as a springboard to more complex projects.
