    Smile Dozer and Vibro Roller

    Gooday,
    Now dont hit me - this is my first post, and my first model toy in 72 years,
    Made originally for my 2yo Grand Nephew, this has now been made into 3rd prize in a raffle to raise funds for our local (Bordertown, SA) yet-to-be-built Men's Shed.
    Made from Aschi's Workshop free plans just to see how things go.
    A couple of differences from the plans - thicker wooden axles (made on my metal lathe), and the blade arms attached to the rear axles instead of offset on the wheels.
    Crikey, the photos on here make it look better than it is!!!
