Unleash your creativity and build an exciting DIY go-kart with our CNC router-ready DXF files! Designed for makers of all skill levels, this project allows you to craft a functional and fun go-kart entirely from plywood using your CNC machine. Perfect for children weighing up to 30 kg, this innovative design is powered by a cordless drill — combining engineering with the thrill of homemade adventure.
The CNC files include all the parts necessary to cut and assemble the go-kart's frame and components. Every piece from the seat to the wheels is precisely laid out for easy cutting. The remaining essential components, such as the drill, screws, and bearings, can be easily sourced online or from most home supply stores.
This project is perfect for hands-on parents and kids who love to tinker and create. With clear instructions and a straightforward assembly process, you'll have your go-kart zooming across the driveway in no time!
Product includes:
- DXF files for CNC cutting
- Easy-to-follow assembling instructions
Compatibility: Fits most CNC routers
Suitability: Children up to 30 kg
Power source: Cordless drill (not included)

The project can be made on a 600 x 900 mm (2 x 3 ft) CNC router and bigger.
*The files are adjusted to fit both metric and imperial standards for materials and tools
*For powering the go-kart prototype we used the “DeWALT DCF899P2” drill - when using a different power drill the go-kart's performance can be affected. Some design modifications might be needed to suit your cordless drill.
