"Let's do some creativity- WEEK 5 (Construction Of Tricycle Using Waste Carton)".

Peace be unto you all believing you and your families are fine as I am. I am here in this contest to show you how I creatively constructed a Tricycle using a waste carton as the major material. I thank @jyoti-theligh for organising this contest and sustaining it to this moment. Without any hesitation, let's get into the business of the day.

Materials For Construction

• Waste carton
• Black embossed paper
• Scissors
• Paper cutter
• Pencil
• Evostik gum
• Ruler
• Leather skin
• Maskin tape
• Black Acrylic colour
• Brush
• Acrylic Adhesive
• Iron
• binding wire
• copper wire

Step 1
I began my construction by measuring and cutting the bottom panel. I measured the bottom panel to be 5 inches wide and 8.5 inches long. I designed the front of the tricycle to have a curve and after that, I cut it out using my paper cutter

Step 2
I constructed the back panel. The back panel is measured 3 inches high. I cut the carton measuring 3 inches high and gummed it at the back of the bottom panel.

Step 3
I constructed the demarcation between the rider's space and the passenger's space. The demarcation measures 2 inches wide and I gummed it using evostik gum.

Step 4
Here, I constructed the passenger seat. The seat is two inches high and 1.5 inches wide. I also make provisions where the passengers will rest their backs. Here, I make use of a leather skin for the seat. After the construction, I mount it on the bottom panel using Evo-Stik gum.

Step 5
At this step, I constructed the rider's seat using a carton and leather skin. The seat is also two inches high like that of the passengers.

Step 6
In this step, I constructed the front panel, which is 3 inches high and 7.5 inches long and mounted it using Evostik gum. I also constructed a dashboard using a carton and a steering using a small iron. I gummed the dashboard using Evo-Stik gum and the steering using acrylic adhesive.

Step 7
I formed the top frame of the tricycle using bidding wire and fastened it with copper wire.

Step 8
I mount the iron frame on the construction using acrylic adhesive.

Step 9
I formed the top panel using a carton and mounted it using acrylic adhesive

Step 10
I fixed the rider's seat back support using leather skin, carton and evostik gum. I also fixed two pillars to support the construction.

Step 11
I cover the back of the tricycle and the other part of the iron frame. I measured the carton and peeled one side to enable it to fold easily and smoothly. Having done that, I used evostik gum to do the gumming.

Step 12
I constructed the wheel of the tricycle using a container cover and coloured it black with acrylic colour. I constructed the headlight using peeled cartons and I also cut black embossed paper and used it to make some rough edges and to also beautify the tricycle. Finally, I used masking tape to cover some rough edges of the construction.
