    Default Cement Truck

    Had a little play this morning, came up with this little truck. 165mm long. Used a few scraps up.

    Love it Glenn but I have to disagree upon your comment that you "made it from scraps";

    their are no such thing as scrap timber, especially for a toymaker; "IT'S JUST OFFCUTS AWAITING A PROJECT"!

    And sir, this is a beauty , well done, Cheers, Peter

    Do you think a dual rear axle would be better, I think the triple looks a bit odd.
    Let me know what you think.

    Dual wheels do look better IMO but the mixer is great as it is.

    G’day Glenn,
    The current lot of heavy concrete trucks are either triaxles plus single steers or twin steers.
    For either or is good for a handmade timber toy for fun, play and imagination.
    Cheers Peter

    This is becoming monotonous - not.
    Another well deserved good job.
    Always look forward to seeing your creations.
