Phantom Scroller Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) Well I've started the alphabet train for the granddaughter for when she's older these are just templates to draw around in pine so I can produce multiple letters and trains to sell when I'm done, this saves all that pattern gluing. Just need to produce loads of wheels now. Got bored so got on the lathe and made some mice with rare earth magnets in to stick them everywhere the wife's going to kill me. haa haa Edited April 13, 2014 by Phantom Scroller Forester and Rob Roy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWSUDEKUM Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Roly if you scare the cat or give the cat splinters you will never hear the end of it. Great job though. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Phantom Scroller 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjR Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Hey trains are fun! The mice are very neat!!! I also make templates for things I intend to repeat; then only sometimes use them. Seems I continually change the design some! Phantom Scroller 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penquin Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 like the train, cute. Looks like a fun project. jim penquin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kepy Posted April 19, 2014 Report Share Posted April 19, 2014 I have used a lot of templates for things that I repeat. Found that 1/8" masonite works great. It is inexpensive and thin enough that it is easy to trace around. Phantom Scroller 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
