That is wood. As a furnituremaker/woodworker I have seen all kinds of similar items made from wood, and it shows the maker to be very skilled, even if we all seem to have a screw loose sometime.

It was on the internet - it's gotta be true!! :wink:

Sorry - no other info on this. It was in a collection of wood artistry.

Nice, but I could never ride one. It'd just go against the grain! [emoji6]

So you wouldn't put a Beetle map in it then ?

 Well sir you are correct, I will wait no longer.
 
   I saw your post today and feel it may be un-poplar with some splinter groups on this boards forum. Using exotic wood for a scooter goes against the grain of some but I think it's oak. If yew could chisel the seller down on price and knot take a shellacing I say why knot!  Ogee I forgot to tell you to stain touch and keep us posted if this branches out. :evil:

I'll go out on a limb here and say that although it's a treemendous effort, the seller will be pining when he hears the offers. Most people will leaf after seeing it. Yep, life's a beach!

Would you ride your "morning wood" to a Guzzi breakfast in the woods?

By Gum. I think you have gotten to the root of this wooden bike thing. Guys who think bikes should be made of metal, are barking up the wrong tree. Priceless stuff RR!
