Beginners project
Not really a scale model but a fun first project for my kids.
This is the marshmallow catapult from popular woodworking.

Made with dados, lap joints, bridle joints plus a mortise and tenon so a good introduction to these joints.
Mine was made with hand tools out of Tassie oak from Bunnings then finished with shellac.
Regards,
Adam

Top job Adam...
Welcome to the wonderful world of toymaking were the reward is a double act..
First the joy of the making then the greater joy of seeing children play with your hand made wonderful creation.

Love it .... I would be afraid that my kids would eat the marshmallows and replace them with marbles.

pointy corners, or heavy. I guess in some way it's better that they've not chosen heavy (yet)
