我们之前谈过DIY项目;其中一些令人震惊,而另一些只是令人满意。然而,每隔一段时间,你就会遇到一些DIY项目,它们纯粹地反映了天才的思想,让你感到惊讶。这样的DIY项目是可以投入市场,一定会得到惊人的反馈和结果;如镇流器灯泡。对于那些不熟悉DIY项目的人,这里有一个简单的介绍。DIY的意思是自己动手。DIY项目是指不由任何公司而是由个人或个人团队承担的项目。你可以很好地说,这些爱好的结果是可以执行和利用的。人们已经从建造电影设备的复制品到建造自己的过山车。 The idea is appealing and interesting. With the right mind set and tools, one can achieve whatever they set their mind to. Anyhow, enough of the pep talks, let’s get down to business. We will be talking about a DIY project which is bound to get into market with a bang. In 2009, Izhar Gafni, an Israeli Engineer was working on a boring project and if you must know it was the design of a machine that was supposed to extract seeds from pomegranates. Our engineer was in the library and as every engineer would know, we all just love drifting in thoughts when we are working; his mind drifted to his favorite hobby, cycling. He was an admirer of the bikes made from sustainable bamboo, but the cost was too damn high. Let’s make it cost efficient, he thought. How to do that was the question, but soon enough he had the answer; Cardboard. Engr. Gafni spent the next two years learning how to convert cardboard shapes into strongest shapes that was possible. This led him to strong structures which somewhat resembled honeycombs and bird nests. The next year was spent in converting those shapes into bicycle components. Gafni said, ‘I almost felt like the Wright Brothers going into unknown territory.’
当他以一辆单速自行车获胜时,这种艰苦的劳动证明是有成效的。辐条、轮辋和车架都是用硬纸板做的。这纸用清漆防潮。这辆自行车用旧汽车轮胎作防刺车轮。此外,他使用汽车的正时带作为链条,踏板曲柄是用塑料瓶制成的。结果,女士们先生们;阿尔法-一个28磅的原型车,可以容纳20倍于它体重的骑手。
同上。Gafni计划将两种型号投入量产;一个给大人,一个给小孩。材料制造成本为9美元,售价不得超过30美元。他计划用这种纸板技术制造更多有用的东西,他说:“你几乎可以用它做任何事情!”“这是我们大家将来都可以求助的东西;用这种材料建造日常用品。

太棒了。希望这些自行车能很快上市。我们在等待。
嗨
什么时候能上市,或者我怎么才能买到……
有人知道这些自行车什么时候可以买到吗?我没有找到关于这个题目的资料。
瑞恩:它们还没有上市。
