Powered Front Wheel Design

[campadk]

It's a pain.. ok mainly in sand, to luge my tear around by hand. Has anyone setup a powered front caster so you can walk your baby into position with just a finger? Maybe take it for a walk around the park even?

Design I'm looking for would use the 12V battery for power and a pneumatic wheel.

Single speed is fine.

I'm thinking maybe a 5 speed with a "Hemi" - forget the TV.

A friend of mine hooked up a motorized front wheelchiar wheel to help someone push around their boat. The 6" wheel has a 12v gear motor mounted near the axle. You could do the same. But you have to call it the "BertWheel" because that's what he named it.

Not powered, but I couldn't resist the price of $19. It would cost more to buy the tires if you made one yourself.
