Christmas presents for the kids and mom

[banderson]

Just finished the last of the Christmas presents for the family.  I think the kids have forgotten that I was making them but not sure.  The street sweeper has a special story.  My oldest came up to me and drew a design for a street sweeper and wanted me to make it.  He then took the paper back and drew out all the part drawings.  He is seven so the plan made sense in his head not on paper.  So we worked together to get a design and a plan that he liked and looked like the plan in his head.  His most important items were the siren on top and the brushes had to turn on the ground.  Both were accomplished.  The Mormon temple was a plan that Tony made for me from a picture.  It the pattern was great my cutting was decent.  It was a good challenge and something I had never done.

Brady,

Your wooden toys are amazingly well designed and built. I have to say that I not only enjoy your toy posts but I now look forward to seeing what you come up with each time. I also really like your temple post too. Very well done, as well

Nice work

[meflick]

Excellent job all around.  I am sure your family was more than pleased with their gifts.  It is great that your son and you were able to work together to come up with the working plan for the street sweeper.  He will treasure it I am sure and you may have the beginnings of an engineer there in that one. Thanks for sharing your pics and your story.

Thank you for all the comments.  It has been a little while since I have been on the forum so I have a lot to catch up on.

Can't call the trucks "Toys" those are family heirlooms.  They look super.  Love the street sweeper, your son really gave you a tough one there but it came out wonderful.  The Temple cutting is great and looks very nice in the frame.

Well done.
