A DIY version of Tesla’s Cybertruck made out of wood

Tesla’s Cybertruck, the futuristic electric truck that has captivated millions of fans around the world, is supposed to launch at the end of November. However, due to various production issues and challenges, the release date has been pushed back several times.

But one man in Vietnam was not willing to wait any longer. He decided to create his own version of the Cybertruck using his woodworking skills and materials. And he did an amazing job.

 

Meet the wooden Cybertruck

The man behind this amazing project is Truong Van Dao, a woodworker and content creator who runs the YouTube channel ND-Woodworking Art. He shared a video of his 100-day journey of creating a wooden replica of the Cybertruck, which at the time of publishing has gone viral with over 10 million views.

I hope to have the honor of gifting this wooden Cybertruck to you and Tesla.

To his surprise, Elon Musk replied to his post with a simple but heartfelt message:

Sure, much appreciated.” He also added a small heart emoji.
