Project Information

I have been working on this for a little while now, it was a small request from the great grandson.

It is 22" long 6 1/2" wide and 10 1/2" tall and strong enough for a small child to sit on the cab. The number is his dad's banger racing number and it is called Toby the Tank engine as he wanted it for his 1 year old brother of the same name. As can be seen it is based on Thomas the tank engine but with differences.

All the round parts are turned on the lathe.

Snoopy is there as part of a joke on an Australian website and is called my little helper
