Popular Post Jaguarguy Posted February 22, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 I started working on these in the last couple of weeks. I used a combination of scroll saw and Band saw. My Delta wasn't up to cutting these chunks of wood for the body - Had to use the band saw there. I used the scroll saw on the fenders. The truck was the first one I did. It has an ash body and purple heart fenders finished with 4 coats of Formby's tung oil. The convertible is black walnut with cumaru fenders and finished the same as the truck. I have the next 3 cut out just waiting on sanding and assembly. Two black walnut and I believe a red cedar. Here's the pics - Thanks for looking! RabidAlien, ChelCass, JAC1961 and 15 others 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 cute little wooden toys. I think my great grandsons would like them as well. Might make a few and see what their reaction are. Nice job on the ones you made. Enjoyed viewing them Dick heppnerguy Jaguarguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaguarguy Posted February 22, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 Barry - the plans are from ToymakingPlans.com. The cost was about $15 for the set of 5 plans. Dick - I haven't put them in the hands of little ones yet but they appear to be pretty sturdy! BTW - here's another vehicle I completed today. I call it the "Carrotmobile"! Put together and finished in less than 2 days. I used 1/2" plywood for the body and 1/4" for the rabbit. I plan on using them as Easter presents.

John B Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) Great stuff. all look ready to knock up many miles of trouble free play. I like the "Carrot" mobile. I can see them selling really well at a market stall with a small Easter egg attached.
