Manufacturing the donkey cart and ambulance
Practical Action
will support the seat for the driver of
the ambulance. The seat can be seen
more clearly in the 3D model drawing
in diagram 18.
2. The next stage is the making of
the ambulance frame (one is shown in
picture 12).

Part B
Part C
a) The sides of the frame (Part B x 2
and Part D x 2) are welded together to form
a rectangle. The wire mesh (Part F) is put

inside and welded in place. Following this the
frame support strap (Part E) is welded in the
middle from the inside holding the wire mesh
in place. This is done twice to form the sides
of the frame.
b) The lower back (not the upper back) and
front of the frame (Part D x 2) is then welded
to the sides to form the full frame and wire
mesh (Part G) is placed in the back section
and welded in place and the support strap

c) The drivers seat is formed by
the cart frame
cutting 45 degree angles on parts
M and N and welding them into a
rectangle.
d) The drivers seat is then
welded to the front left corner of
the cart frame as shown in
diagram 16.
c) Planks of wood (Part H) are
then put on the frame to make a base. These are held in place by welding two
metal strips (Part I) slightly above the wood on each side. See diagram 17.
3. In order to insert the round section bar that acts as a roof support, four 10
mm clearance holes need to be drilled at the ends of the upper ambulance sides
(Part B). The position of one the holes is shown in diagram 13 a), the other 3
holes are in the same position at each end.
