    Default I need some assistance with a woodturning part for a wooden toy for my grandson pleas

    Ladies & Gents, I need some assistance with a woodturning part for a wooden toy for my grandson please, if I could trouble someone, thank you.

    He's been asking me to make him a Concrete Truck since I showed him the plan about 3 years ago but as I don't have a wood lathe neither do turning I'd appreciate help assistance.

    Below is a couple of pages from the plan to give you an idea of the project part.

    Thank you in advanced, email or "PM" me if you're able to help.

    Cheers, crowie

    If only I was your part of the world I would have happily done it for you and I think the cost of sending it and the problems of getting wood into Australia would not make it viable. If no one takes you up I can suggest a way around but lets see if someone can help first Peter.

    Pete I would be happy to turn the drum and then post it down. But if someone closer wants to do it that's OK, I won't stress out. Please let me know your preference and timber choice ( regarding colour) or will you be painting the drum? (if painting I could do it in good old Radiata)
    Just do it!

    Kind regards Rod
