Description
This is a fairly accurate 1/10 scale model of Honda's early 1980s folding scooter, the Motocompo. There's already plastic model kit versions out there, and a papercraft version (which I've built), but they tend to accomplish the folding by having you take parts off, then put them back in the "folded" position. Good excuse to play with designing things that print with built-in joints!
The papercraft version can be found here http://www.ne.jp/asahi/paper-m/yasu/2art_motor-c/e_motoco.htm , you may notice it inspired my seat folding mechanism.
