Pickup Truck

[Dan]

I got my patterns from Winfield last week. This is one of the first vehicles I made. 

 

     

 

The patterns are for 2" wheels but all I currently have are 3/4" wheels. So I reduced the pattern and cut this. It's ash and walnut. I have 2" wheels on the way. My grandson now has a small collection of wooden cars and trucks.

Dan, that looks like a collectors item.

Very well made.

[Falcon]

That looks great Dan

Very nicely done Dan. I really like the two woods you chose.

Very nice Dan. And a very lucky Grandson, he'll love the truck.

That is one fine looking truck Dan.......I believe Steve Good had a tuitorial

once on how to make these wheels using the drill with forstner bits...might be worth a search.

That is super.  Love it, at 3/4 inch on the wheels the whole thing can't be very large. Great looking project.

Those are really cool. They look like they have a real nice finish. I'm sure they will get a lot of miles put on them. dave

Nicely done Dan, I'd like to see it next to a coin so that I could tell what size it is. What size is it now, and what size was it in the original patterns?

Very nice, Dan,

Great looking pick up truck!

You know you are definitely talented enough to scroll some 2" wheels but,

don't you have a set of hole saws?

These sets are reasonably priced http://www.harborfreight.com/catalogsearch/result?q=hole+saw

and the pilot hole is just right for 1/4" dowels rod axels.

Anyway, once again, great work!
Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse
