    Hi Aussie as you may remember I was planning to give one each to the grandsons now 4 and 18 months, but I think they may only last a few mins with them, so maybe a glass case would be the go put up on a shelf where they could see them.
    I will have a look around for some ideas! have you any on the matter, as for finishing off just a couple more coats of Dewaxed White Shellac that I bought off the boss at ww show.
    Sand with some very fine paper or 00 steel wool and I think that would be it
    Regards Col

    Well done colbra, you have done a nice job on those. Now you will have to set about making that glass case.
    Reality is no background music.

    Thanks John and Wheelinround, I could not find a suitable plan for a small display case so I am going to have a go with a couple of ideas of my own will keep you all up to date with progress as slow as it maybe at times

    They are excellent. Two of my favourite things combined, wooden toys and fire trucks.
