The market for kick scooters is fast growing, but there is a lack of wooden models for adults, only the models for small children are offered at the moment. In thesis the designing and manufacturing process of the mould and wooden kick scooter made of beech veneer is shown. With SolidWorks program three different 3D models were designed and then the one that offered the greatest innovation and the most suitable production option was selected. First, 3D mould was made on a CNC machine where the G code in SolidCAM software was created. Innovation of the designed and manufactured scooter is in the technique of layering of well-oriented and tailored beech veneers. A butyl tube was covered with shaped veneer and then all layers were inserted in the mould and inflated with high air pressure. So designed and manufactured kick scooter has met all set criteria in terms of strength, weight and appearance.
