I made a bike trailer from rubbish.

All of the raw materials were wombled from skips.

The frame is 2 by 2's from estate agent signs.

The wheels are from the Walthamstow Bicycle Recycling Project.

The trailer arm is from an office chair that collapsed.

The box is a recycling tub, found abandoned in a park.

The corner padding is broken bike tire.

The brackets were scrap dexian, and some aluminium from the scrap metal bin.


The only paid-for parts were the shackles bought from Beales, a ship-chandlers in Covent Garden, and the frame screws bought from Clerkenwell Screws.

I've also added some eyelet-screws to assist attaching bungee cords.

I can now womble bigger things...
