Okay, going to post this in a second forum,  I posted it in "Other wood working" got little attention, and I thing it deserves more,  This is cool, and would, I think, be a challenge to make.  I have his carousel plans.  Good service, good plans.  Fact I think I will add him to the pattern shop in resources.  This must have taken some thought and trial and error.  Check it out you toy builders especially.  I will probably give it a try when I finish some other projects.  It is a short video.

Looking over the plans, the measurements are in metric.  Calls for 20mm and 40 mm wood.  American 3/4 is 19mm.  I have 4/4 poplar that I plan to use.  Will plane to 20mm and will glue up the wood for the 40mm parts.   I did not study the plans close enough to see if 3/4 and 1 1/2 would work.  Probably would.  

There are dowel rods that are non-standard when converted from metric.  I plan to use the next closest size that we can easily obtain and modify the plans to drill the correct corresponding holes. 


The plans are detailed, 34 pages long.

Looks like fun but way to complicated for this old boy. Paul enjoys making things like that I will let him try first,

You mean I enjoy trying.  I have pieces of thing like that laying around my shop... Some I do not even remember what I was trying to make!

Since this is a scroll saw forum, I attached one of the pages from the instructions that shows some of the parts. You would use a scroll saw to cut out the wheel hubcaps.  Some of the other parts would be cut out on a scroll saw too.

The designer is from Turkey, he used what looked like a hand coping saw for some of his cuts.
