When your wife tells you to spend more time with your child instead of doing projects in your garage, so you slap a seat on one and call it good. jk. But for real though, this is awesome. Keep it up.

[@KrisTemmermanNP]

I know, right? Next video, a new grinder... for my kid...

[@BabaG]

I am not sure how I stumbled upon this channel. But wow. I am envious of the tools you have, the passion you have, the skill sets you have and of course the creative talent to pull it all together. Wonderful work and thanks for sharing. I wonder if you would be kind enough to share with random strangers like me your skill set and if one were to go about learning stuff without having to go pay at some school to learn your skill sets what would you do. Maybe you shall share a video on your tool shop as well. Awesome mate.

[@mh1066]

It makes me giggle whenever I get to see you do things like these. I guess the whole point of this commnet is to show how enthusiastic your work makes me feel!

HI Kris!! What a spectacular project!! This will be such a treasure for your son to know that you made this for him!! Thanks for sharing!

Im very interested to find out how your milling machine is cutting. Are those 750w servo motors up to the job when you use a big cutter. I have just bought my grounded steel planes with hewing 35mm rails. Building a mag drill first then making the cnc milling machine.

[@OFFRoadWheels]

I would like to build a eltricwheel chair fram with this design using some kind of hub moter for the driving moters then stepper servos for the rotation of the wheels.

[@8bit711]

Smiles all around!

[@jamesbarratt593]

had you had the front wheels on the back too, I think you would find going over rough terrain even smoother. Maybe as back wheels rise the front tension to compensate. Well done though. Looks great. Your sons a lucky kid.

[@Sarahbuildsstepsequencers]

So how long before you’ve made the adult size version? This is amazing and you’re one fine engineer. I admire you greatly for your knowledge and abilities.

What happened to the rotating Cube?

[@OmarRampado87]

Amazing! You are the best maker ever!

[@KrisTemmermanNP]

Thanks Omar! :)

[@Duckeasily]

Should add an XSR Receiver so you don’t need a controller cable! The Arduino code that you use for it is pretty easy, and you have a choice in controllers from FrSky.

[@JensAndree]

I'd prefer a wired solution if I'd put one of my kids as toddlers on it though... Just saying ;)

[@thudthud5423]

This is fantastic. A few thoughts: 1. You should PATENT THIS! Don't lose money you could make from it. You might not be in it for the money, but someone else might grab your idea and use it to make money. 2. If you did sell it, I think you'd have problems selling it as a toddler sized "stroller because children don't stay that size for very long and they'd grow out of something pretty expensive". If you upgrade the size, it might be last longer as kids get older. 3. How about creating an all terrain wheel chair? Imagine someone disabled who is able to go to the park or "walk" through the woods.

Have you consider building the same rover but for disable people? It would be an instant hit! My respects, u r a genius

[@KrisTemmermanNP]

Thanks! :) I have considered making an adult size one. But this one is probably the max size i can build in my workshop. Not sure if something like this is suitable for disabled people. It has a big footprint, even the kids size rover cant fit thru a normal door. For outdoors, you already have multiple all terrain electric wheel chairs, which are probably better. In the end, my project is just a gimmick. I don't see it working in many real world applications. :)

[@ocilassolrac14]

@@KrisTemmermanNP you are very humble sir. Consider a future project on how to help a disable person with a robotic arm, chair or may be a robot. That little grain of sand would be great for the planet. Respects to you sir.
