This is our first prototype of Scootertiller, a project my son and I built.

The seeds for a project of this sort started for us last summer at a car show where we saw some cool wagons. They weren't motorized, but they were cool designs, and we thought we would try to build something like that. Except we wanted a motorized vehicle (of course). Our original plan was to rig up an engine on a Radio Flyer wagon.

I started looking into engines and go-kart kits and found that such things can be very expensive. We found a Ryobi rototiller and we had a plan to use it to build a powered wagon. We were about to buy a wagon for the purpose when we stumbled into a three-wheeled scooter contraption. We took a look, thought about it, and decided to scoop it up.

We yanked out the front end of the scooter and shoved the rototiller into the vacancy. A few welds here, a few bolts there and viola, Scootertiller!

	It works! I think my kid is the only one on the block with one of these.
