    Default Toy Truck

    I made this for my grandson's birthday, using a design in "Making Heirloom Toys". The various timbers, blackwood, oak, meranti, oregon and a bit of ply make interesting contrast in clear finish, much nicer than a coat of enamel IMHO.
    Cheers,
    Graeme

    Nice looking truck Graeme. Might have a look at the book myself.

If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life."

    Nice truck Graeme - do you let him play with it or are you still running it in?

    Well done - great job and much nicer than any of that imported junk you get from toy shops. Nice rounded surfaces and made with love!

    Cheers
