Building Cheapest Scooter of Congo by Hand

In this episode on Tekniq, We will witness how the locals of countries worldwide produce and commercially utilize vehicles made from wood and other cheaper materials.

[@forestman2382]

It actually takes so much skill and intelligence to design and build something like that, I for one, can never manage to do such a complicated carpentry project. People in the rich countries might ridicule this, but these people are doing the best they can with the little that they have, God could have put you all in their place

[@maggs131]

Any ignorant person would ridicule what these people are doing. I work with my hands everyday and make a good living at what I do but I can't fault anyone with a will to work and the skill to do whatever they need. I respect their ingenuity ❤

[@pnmugambi]

Being an African engineer, these wooden scooters are rather rudimentary. I believe the Congolese polytechnics and universities can support these technicians with more efficint powered scooters which can even carry cargo uphill without using human blood and sweat.

[@forestman2382]

You miss the point , the reason for these being made is that people can't afford real scooters made of metal

[@Peterdom393]

Es una vergüenza que las superpotencias como China, Japón, EEUU, y Rusia, están muy ocupados en enviar armamentos y bombas a otras naciones😠😠. ¿Porque no les envían dos o tres furgones de bicicletas y motocicletas a esa pobre gente???😕😕😕

[@bushcraftua1]

Inventive people. Well done 👍👍👍

[@AdvaitThakur]

Can see so many bikes, carriers around them. But it seems they can't afford it. The feeling is great, they would have to put a lot of effort to transport those goods without the vehicle. This vehicle saves their time, money and efforts.

[@banksbanks2173]

When we were kids in the 70s and 80s, we had to make our own toys because our parents could not afford it

[@user-vu1so5jl2t]

​@@banksbanks2173Similarities government could not afford them to give metal scooters ..so they make own wood scooters 😂😂😂😢😢😢😢

[@ab-gt3iu]

...What in the Fred Flintstone Scooter is this!

[@maggs131]

Id love to know how they coordinate their little motorcycle train trips to not interfere with each other or any actual trains

[@717rachael]

Start a company Congolese. Amazing concept. Manufacture and sell your product.

Es lamentable que en pleno siglo XXI algunos pueblos del mundo todavía estén viviendo en la edad de piedra😢😢😢.

Неужели такое возможно?! У нас в Казахстане в глухом селе даже на улицу такое средство не выехало бы.

We are in the '22nd' century,

[@Peterdom393]

Mientras las superpotencias como China, Japón, EEUU, y Rusia, están muy ocupadas en enviar armamentos y bombas a otras naciones, vemos a esa pobre gente viviendo todavía en la Edad de Piedra como Los Flintstone.😠😠. ¿Porque no les envían dos o tres furgones de bicicletas y motocicletas a esa pobre gente???😕😕😕

There is a saying Necessity is the mother of discovery but fact is poverty is the mother of discovery

Once they discover money can buy electric tools to...😅 Loan, tools, mass production, profit...!

Plato famously wrote: “our need will be the real creator”, which was moulded over time into the English proverb 'Necessity is the mother of invention'.

Japan invented the RICKSHAW WAAAAYYYyyyyyy back in "1869". WITH "SPOKED" BICYCLE TIRES... Look how much the genius's here have improved the wheel!

[@ventolin63]

This technology from the Wakanda people is amazing! No wonder Black Panther wants to keep ot for himself!

[@user-vu1so5jl2t]

Wakanda forever

[@forestman2382]

It's interesting to see how people in Africa struggle to survive with no help from their government or the international.community

[@1cmnsents]

If they can get compressed bearings for the wheels .... why not buy heavy duty bicycle wheels instead???? Japan invented the RICKSHAW WAAAAYYYyyyyyy back in "1869". WITH "SPOKED" BICYCLE TIRES... Look how much the genius's here have improved the wheel!

These are the craziest contraptions I’ve ever seen. There’s no way I’d do this dangerous hauling for pennies. Desperation has caused these poor souls to innovate these awful gravity machines.

[@justmedia5815]

Do you have any idea how hard it must be to chop wood with a machete until you've made a cargo cycle? I would've fainted after one wheel

That's a road disaster waiting to happen 😭

[@vinodsrivatsava]

they have to make solar panels more efficient than they are or make them electric powered so people can charge them for free and go about their business, even if it can't carry the whole weight they can reduce human effort that's the idea

A lot of the convenience we currently enjoy was invented by black people, to make the backbreaking working conditions easier. The horse saddle for instance was invented the original cow boys.
