Mike,

Quite innovative indeed.

A few years ago I read an article about a Japanese architect that built a small span bridge from corrugated cardboard over a small stream and it included a picture of a car parked in the center of the bridge.

I have also seen pallets constructed of corrugated cardboard.

It’s quite ridged if you can keep it dry.

Thanks for sharing. – Len

An interesting idea. I was hoping to get a view of the gearing but none of the video showed the right side of the bike. Are the gears made of cardboard also? Certainly is out of the box….or should I say OF the box thinking:-)

I’m thinking bandsaws, table saws, furniture, you name it. Lightweight and easy to move around, but vibrations might be an issue and the question of recycling. How about airplanes, cars, etc? I guess I am getting carried away, but lightweight strong and cheap materials do introduce an amazing range of possibilities.

Wow! I clicked on a non-shop talk post and didn’t want my 5 min back

But, cardboard comes from wood, right?

It’s great to see something innovative like that that could make a real difference to someone in the third world.

I sincerely hope someone gets behind this guy to start production instead of just buying him off and burying the potential.
