    Default Truck a Kid Can Ride On

    Found a plan for a truck a kid can ride on. Looks okay (Popular Science, Jan, 1940, p. 195).

    Nice one. What can we do the the tray of the truck so it does not hurt the legs. Make it flat bed and put a bit of foam on it?

    Well it depends on age of the kid,narrow for smaller kids..Do a round over on the router? I'm thinking about using aerosol filler primer,sand and seal with a clear coat
