DWSUDEKUM Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 This started life as a Steve Good pattern. I added a tray ( ver 2 ) I then made the tray removable ( ver 3 ) DW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryEA Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 You got a winner! It looks great. The tray is a good addition. But, picture #1 looks like you might get bit if you reach for the gumball. I made one once and the gumballs would sometimes hang up. I didn't make the prize dispensor correct. It was a little hard to turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWSUDEKUM Posted November 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 Yes indeedy! love the rim look on the removeable tray! i'll bet a plywood bowl would look great if this part looks great The whole thing is made out of appleply and since I have been making them, a couple of years now only one person has used it for gumballs to the best of my knowledge. Most have been using it for Skittles and M&Ms. The key is the amount of edge feathering you have inside and on the wheel opening. Real easy to make and a kid drawer at the craft fairs and shows. Filled with Skittles the bright colors draw them in like a magnet and they light up when they are allow to give the wheel a spin and they get their candy. I try to have at least one or two at each show. DW Rob Roy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombatie Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 You are a brilliant salesman, get the kids interested and mum and dad are obliged to buy one just to keep little Jane / Jimmy quite, sounds good to me. Like Version 3, getting better and better all the time. Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Roy Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 Very, very nice DW, I like version 3 too. The "sales" technique is excellent. Having 2 Grandsons, I've been caught out a few times myself,but it's all good fun. Keep making them DW. Thanks for sharing with us. Rob Roy.
