    Default 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

    G'Day Phil,
    It's a home made fruitfly trap;
    a 3ltr juice bottle with the top half of 2 x 2ltr milk bottles "hot glued" into the side.
    I'll have to more careful with my photography - lol....
    Cheers, Crowie

    PS - Not quite as fancy as some, but never the less great fun, relaxing and beaut gifts to give away.....

    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.....
