Rideable Unicycle

This is a rideable unicycle that can be printed on the Makerbot Replicator 2 or the Makerbot Replicator 5th Generation. I made it to enter the #LightItUp Thingiverse Challenge.

My initial plan was to have this printed and then add persistence of vision LED lights in the wheel (like this: http://goo.gl/Y62QZp), except with the Makerbot logo displayed. This has been my first experience with CAD/3D printing and I’ve been learning everything along the way, so I barely finished the CAD model in time! But if I win the 3D printer, I’ll be able to complete this project thoroughly and post videos of me riding the unicycle with Makerbot's logo glowing in the wheel. It would be like an investment for Makerbot.

If anybody else is interested in printing this, please send me a message and I’ll help you out and teach you to unicycle if need be.
