Motorized Couch

By John Farrier in Video Clips on Jul 27, 2010 at 10:02 am

Nick Homer and Stewart Clyde, students at Brigham Young University, built a motorized couch and started driving it around campus:

Two twelve volt car batteries power the broken wheel chair moving the couch. It’s a pretty stable ride and the BYU students who made it have been riding in comfort through Provo. But, they aren’t getting a warm welcome from BYU campus police. Motorized vehicles are banned on campus.

This is nothing new – Reed College actually has a student club called the Motorized Couch Collective.

We know its not a new invention, just a cool way to spend afternoons. We’ve been getting tons of emails lately on how to build one of these so we tossed together a site: http://www.motorizedcouchboys.com. Just follow our process and you’ll be driving around on a couch in a few days.
