Old Car
A little while ago I posted a link to an old car pattern by Steve Good. Here it is again:
http://www.stevedgood.com/oldcar.pdf
Scrollsaw Workshop: Scroll Saw Car Prototype Demo (scroll down until you see the car).
I thought I would do a rough mock-up of it using rubbish materials (including an old fence paling as the engine block) to see what it looked like. I also wanted to try the wheels described here:
Toy Making Dad: Making a Spoked Wheel (Part 1) (yes I used plywood).
I finished it. Yes it is rough but I like it and I would make a good one at a later date:
Old Car - YouTube
I don't like the wheels though. They weren't designed for cars but for a cannon. I do understand how they go together better now. I did not bother doing the grill properly. I did say it is rough. Might help someone thinking of doing this car. I recommend it.

Thanks for the link to the pattern. I have downloaded it and will put it on my things to do list.
Reality is no background music.
