I Built a RIDICULOUS Electric Chariot for William Osman at Open Sauce 2024
What do you get when you mix a barrel, a wheelchair, a tiger, and pure chaotic engineering? You get this monstrosity—a fully custom electric chariot go-kart, built specifically to impress William Osman at Open Sauce 2024!
In true Woodshed TV fashion, I turned a pile of scrap, bad decisions, and an e-bike motor into a barely legal (but fully awesome) personal transport device. This was my first-ever electric vehicle build, and of course, I made it weird. Designed to capture attention, make people laugh, and—most importantly—get William Osman’s seal of approval.
Along the way, I battled broken welds, questionable electronics, and had to shove a pole somewhere no tiger deserves… but in the end, it was 100% worth it.
⚡ Build Highlights:
Custom frame from barrel + steel tubing
Powered by a 350W hub motor & 48V lithium battery
Wheelchair wheels for that extra flair
Fully rideable Tiger-Pulled Chariot
Survived the trip from Idaho ➡️ San Francisco
Got rated by William Osman himself!
🚀 Why I Built This:
Learn EV basics (because why not start with a chariot?)
Bring something unforgettable to Open Sauce
Meet creators like Michael Reeves, Colin Furze, Joel Creates, Louis Weisz, Ed March, Kevin the Backyard Scientist, and more!
And yes... to make William Osman proud 😂
