Thank you Kevin.. I wasn't too sure about the wheels before cutting it.. but I do like them.. at least they fit these projects perfectly..

Great job on the wheels like Kevin said.  Did you use a Forstner bit for the wheels?

Thank you Jim... No I never thought about drilling the wheels.. I just cut them on the scroll saw.. LOL.. I should have thought that though a little better.. might have been easier and quicker to drill them.. LOL  No probably not by the time it takes to set up the drill press etc.. These cut pretty quick..

Great job on the patterns Jim, and Kevin, your cutting is outstanding.

 

Are the patterns available for general use?  I would like to cut them without the clocks....I have never had any luck selling clocks.

 

Thanks for sharing.

Patterns are here on this site.. in the pattern request section....

JimErn did an awesome ob with these patterns.. First the tow truck.. that one was a hot seller right off the bat.. I haven't even put it on the website yet.. just posted a picture on my FB.. got orders for 6 of them so far..

The Dodge Dart customer liked it so well they ordered two of them.. one goes to the Dad who they was originally getting it for.. but the son liked it so well he also wanted one..

Kevin, Was you able to get permission to use Dodge & Dart on your clock . I deleted most of

my GUITARS off of Etsy because of copyright issues! What goes around comes around.

Neither of these was ordered from etsy... But no I haven't got permission for the names either... still could list them as long as I don't use the name "Dodge"  I doubt the name Dart is trademarked.. it may be.. I haven't looked.. But there are so many things called Dart that it would get lost in the search anyway.. such as Dart games etc.. Now Dodge is probably a different story.. 

I wouldn't have taken the guitars off unless Etsy said something to you or took them down for you, LOL.. I might have changed the wording in the title and description or at least kept them until they sold out..

You can get creative with listings titles etc. to help avoid conflict.. My car clocks could be listed as Muscle Car, vintage style car, old car, antique car etc etc..   clock.. without having the car make and model involved.. I just run with it for what it is though.. until etsy takes it down.. then I sometimes relist it without the make / model.. Etsy isn't my only business livelihood.. if they shut me down.. I won't die, LOL That's why I sell on 4 different online sites.. Etsy makes up about 60% of the business though.. I'd make it tough for a couple years... but the other sites are gaining steam.. :)

Very nice Kevin.
I can see why the truck would sell well.

I must admit that Copyright laws are a mud hole. If I took a photo of a "Dodge Dart" that photo is mine and I can sell prints and the original. If I painted a picture of a "Dodge Dart" that painting is mine and I can sell prints and or the original. That much is true, in Australia anyhow. Now if someone asked me what the picture was of "A car" but what type of car. "I can't tell you' can you write it on the photo so I don't forget "Nope because it would infringe copyright"  :)

Keep on keeping on mate.
