I saw these two handmade mopeds today. They were built in a local metalwork high school shop class by two teenagers from scratch. I was impressed with the results.

Similar to the kind of thing that Mustie1 [youtube channel] builds for his own entertainment.
His tend to be a bit more 'steampunk' though.

Fair play to them :)

Not sure if that's a good location with what I'll assume is a cordless wheel gun though. Or a drill with a socket on it.  ;D

I got a kick out of all of the chains and sprockets on those mopeds. It was like a puzzle trying to figure out what all of the moving parts did.  ;)
