I was approached by a product designer to fabricate a prototype framework for a mobility scooter rain canopy. The design was for a specific brand of scooter but was fashioned so that it could be adapted with lower mounting plates to fit other models.
Fabricated in tubular steel, the framework had to be light and not obstruct safe use of the vehicle for the occupant. The design was refined after the proof of concept and is now being produced on a large scale in the Far East.
Materials Used:
4130 Steel Tube
Mild Steel Tube and Plate
TIG Welded
