Thread: toys and joys dozer

I just found a pic of the blade.To give you an idea how I did it.Also included a pic of the roof of a car I am making.Sanding the inside joins

thanks for all the replys everyone i managed to make the blade yesterday on the table saw id never cut a cove on a table saw before and i was feeding the wood in to the blade instead of on top of the blade heres a couple of photos of the blade and the unfinished dozer the blade on the back of the trailer is my first feeble attempt at making the blade thanks

Looks good to me Bob.It must be close to finished now?

Excellent work Bob, well done trying a new process.
It's geat to see everyone helping each other......
Cheers, crowie

thanks crowie thats why i like this site everybodys always willing to help and pass on there knowledge and tips to make the job easier ,has for the dozer blade it was a bit hairy to start with on the tablesaw but as long as you only take 16th at a time its okay didnt take that long either bob

Yeah, sorry Bob, I didn't warn you about cutting a cove on the table saw being a little bit scary. But it sounds like you did it the right way (taking small bites) which is the way to go. Push sticks are also the way to go doing it this way.

I like it! And now I know how to make the blade when I get ready to tackle this one. Bob what is the large wheel for? Another model you already started on. Man you are a machine building these things. Where do you keep them all?

hi bret the dozer blade was fairly easy to make once it was explained to me




the big wheels you see i made was for a monster truck i was going to make but they are scrap now all the treads chipped out on the table saw so that projects been put on hold for now bob

I'm not gonna go buy a spindle sander...I'm not!! I'm not!! really...I'm not!! LOLOL!!

Wolf,

The Ridgid OSS is ONE of the best tools I have bought for making toys!!! And at $199 you get 5 different spindle sizes and a 4" belt sander. Lol
