    Default 1960's Truck Set

    Hi All,

    Thought I would post up the latest project from the workshop.

    A set of four, 1960's inspired trucks - which were made from a plan I purchased at Aschi's Workshop, using 38mm (1.5") single and dual treaded wheels from WoodenJoys.

    The flat/wooden tray trucks are approx. 23cm (L) x 9cm (W) x 10cm (H).
    The single axle tipper is approx. 25cm (L) x 9cm (W) x 13cm (H).
    The dual axle tipper is approx. 27cm (L) x 9cm (W) x 12cm (H).

    Truck bodies are made from plywood, and finished in non toxic acrylic paint and varnish.

    Was fun making these, but time to move onto the next project

    Very cool little guys. A lot of painting work there which I dislike doing.
