Big Boots Toy Car + Spinning Blocks Pull Along
G'Day All,
My wife asked for a give for a work friend who'd recently had a little boy.
I normally make a "Spinning Block Pull Along;
but after finding an old wooden car pattern in an English mag as mate gave me, I thought I'd have a go.
I've attached the photos of the Big Boots Toy Car + Spinning Blocks Pull Along.
Cheers, Crowie

Colours aren't my strong point, but I'm learning;
though still have to as my wife or my adult daughters for ideas.
I just find the woodwork relaxing and rewarding, no pressure or stress;
though with the specific's of plans I'm finding out how important it is to be accurate with the measurements [even started to use my engineers digital vernier].
Cheers all, enjoy your woodwork.....

Nice work. very colourful and any kid would love playing with those. Heaps of fun for sure.
Reality is no background music.
Cheers John
