          January 2003: Plankalkul V4 leaves the state of kitchen table development. 
          
          
          Plankalkul V4 CNC parts. 
          
          
          V4 parts: We love that kind of stuff!

          Finally: V4 becomes reality. 
          
          
          This is how everything 
          has started in January 2001: Plankalkül V0.1, a prototype made from 
          Fischertechnik with adjustable chassis geometry. Made for pushing it 
          over my kitchen floor. Hmmm, could it work? 
          
          
           February 2001: Plankalkül 
          V0.9, the first rideable model. Still with adjustable chassis geometry. 
          Yeah, it worked! The front wheel is a castor for furniture. The joystick 
          is made from a pole for land surveying. :-) 
          
          
          A jump from the curbstone 
          brought a sad ending to Plankalkül V0.9. :-( 
          
          
          After some days of 
          mourning the planning phase for Plankalkül V2 starts. 
          
          
          An early version 
          of Plankalkül V2 with improved chassis geometry and board suspension! 
          
          
          I always payed attention 
          to my mascots when i welded something. 
          
          
          That's how my kitchen 
          looked afterwards.
