| − | WHIM Unlimited has a goal to design a power wheelchair which can be '''built''', '''customized''', and '''repaired''' using '''local resources''', ''with a minimum of customized parts''. We will then prove and refine the design by building the chair, and finally publish the designs, software and notes on a website, for anyone to use. The designs will be freely available for all. | + | WHIM Unlimited has a goal to design a power wheelchair which can be [[Owners_Manifesto|'''built''', '''customized''', and '''repaired''']] using '''local resources''', ''with a minimum of customized parts''.

WHIM Unlimited is researching potential power wheelchair designs using common components found in your local hardware, bicycle, and automotive parts store. Our intention is for a finished product which can be built by anyone with some [[wikipedia:DIY|DIY]] experience - if you can use a wrench and a screwdriver, you should be able to build and maintain one of these chairs. | WHIM Unlimited is researching potential power wheelchair designs using common components found in your local hardware, bicycle, and automotive parts store.
