There is nothing old-timey-er than the sound of a horse trotting down a cobblestone street. Now, thanks to Trotify, you can enjoy this auditory pleasure while also making your mustachioed hipster friends wildly envious.
If that weren’t enough of a selling point, Trofity is also DIY, as there is some assembly required. After you buy it, the company ships you a sheet of wood from which you need to pop out the parts to assemble the product. via Trotify makes your bike sound like a trotting horse
It looks like the 2015 Best Parent of the Year Award is all but a lock for Australian Instructables user ‘Tez_Gelmir’ who built this custom Return of the Jedi Speeder Bike rocking horse for his daughter. And Tez gets bonus points for meticulously documenting its construction, and sharing those details with the world.
A word of warning, though, this build isn’t for the faint of heart. You’re going to need some serious wood-working, metal-working, manufacturing, and even upholstery skills to get your Speeder Bike rocker looking as amazing as Tez’s does. via The Dad of the Year Built His Daughter a Custom Speeder Bike Rocking Horse
