    Default Ramp Walkers

    G'day everyone,

    I have been making these ramp walkers on my scroll saw for the kids toy basket at the Aged Care place I volunteer at.

    I am after patterns for a CAT and a DOG if anyone out there can help. Have looked thru pinterest to no avail - plenty of completed ones but no plans.....

    Cheers, Graeme

    Nice work. Can't help you with any patterns, but it shouldn't be too hard to adapt one of your 4 legged creations to suit the cat or dog?
    I think it was your Triceratops that has the 4 legs, so just adapt a dog or cat body to it.
    If I remember back when I was a kid, something like them was in the breakfast cereal packs(Cornflakes?), made of plastic and a small weight with some string, and they would walk off the table top?

    Hi Graeme,
    amazing and I’m sure highly appreciated work for those grand and great grand children that visit their ageing realitives.
    I would like to know where did you get the plans for the ones that you had in the photo that you posted?
    lm a little surprised that your post is the only one that comes up when I search for “ramp walkers”
    cheers petethebutcher

    Hi Graeme, you may want to remove your email address from the post mate, once the bots scrape this site you'll be on every spam list around!

    Cheers, Ian
