2400 year old tricycle
-
Based on this: http://metro.co.uk/2010/03/24/was-this-the-worlds-first-ever-cycle-189288/
If anyone wants to apply Shetchy Physics to it, just let me know and I'll send you the model. (female figure from 3D Warehouse by Antics)

Nice result!
-
-
certainly not the right thing for the mountain stage of the Tour de France
Great Model!

.........and I thought riding a horse gave a person a sore posterior. Cobbles, no thanks, ouch!

I could take on the assignment of physical properties with SketchyPhysics. I would suggest the use of a type inverse kinematics. The tricycle follows a path and all movements lead to the driver from it. The whole thing could then be followed in a WIP under SketchyPhysics.

Looks great
wonder what it's like cornering -
Thanks everyone.
Yeah, I'll bet that thing is incredibly rough to ride. But hey, over 2000 years old? Good early effort.
faust, if you would like to play with it in Sketchy Physics, I'd be glad to sent you the file. Just let me know.

Thanks john!
I'll bet it's like the old Reliant Robin.

Would look stunning all textured up and aged mate! Keep going!

Thanks Richard. However, I am back to work and may not have the time for a few months.
I am also posting the model here for anyone who would like to play with it.

Hoping to see some results from those downloads, people!

really good work... interesting for me is the chinese word on the side.
what it mean...Sketchup, Sketchucation or what?
do you have write to the subforum SketchyPhysics,too?

The Chinese word on the side is traditional (as opposed to simplified) and means "delivery". That's it.

Hi Bryan, after a few days, after some tuning and many testing a possible solution for Your tricycle. It does not really work for the laws of physics, but it moves. It is now more a self-propelled electric bike but the driver jumps maybe later on ...
-
HA! That's GREAT faust07!!! Good job. Thank you!
Can I post this over at the Google+ SketchUp Community with credit to you? Or would you like to post this there?
-
Yes, you can. But the video quality is really bad. I could send you a better one or post it on YouTube in a few days.
I would like to develop the model in a SketchyPhysics- or WIP-post regarding Physics, driver, passengers, environment, rendering and video quality a bit further. Just for fun.
And if there is any resonance (unfortunately the SketchyPhysics branch sleeps currently a little) I could tell something about the process. Your model is a good example for that. -
That sounds good, faust07. I look forward to it.
