  1. Toy Car

    Completed the model of a 1935 mercedes-benz 500k roadster today, subsitute teaching got in the way for most of the last week. Was not completely happy with some of the proportions but doesn't look too bad I think. Making and mounting the headlights from what I learned on my last model went OK...
  2. 1922 Toy Racing Car

    The 1922 book, Advanced Toy Making for Schools by David M. Mitchell, has many design patterns for children's toys. This book is about the equipment needed to teach a boy's woodworking shop class in 1922. At the end of the book are many patterns for the class to make items. One of these...
  3. 1922 Toy Racing Car

    I thought I had made enough of these 1922 race cars for Christmas 2015 family gifts…..and I posted these cars on previous posts: http://lumberjocks.com/projects/130729 http://lumberjocks.com/projects/140690 But everyone who has seen them, absolutely loves them. I ended up giving a blue car...
  4. Fleet of 1922 race cars

    When I finished the first of these 1922 race cars, the yellow one, I previously posted it here. I went a little crazy and made 4 more of the race cars, for a total of 5. The 1922 book, Advanced Toy Making for Schools by David M. Mitchell, has many design patterns for children's toys. You can...
  5. VW Bug Car

    After finishing the previous climbing bear, I realized that I had a lot of scrap wood that I wanted to dwindle down. I had seen toddler wood cars on the internet, and I wasn't totally happy with the simplicity involved, so I somehow settled on a VW Bug profile car. I used 3/4" poplar to start...
  6. One last batch of 1922 cars for Christmas gifts

    I made some of these earlier in the year, and decided I needed to make 5 more for Christmas 2015 gifts to family members. These are based on plans given in a 1922 shop class textbook. Since this is the 3rd batch of cars I have made, I have developed some jigs and methods to speed up making...
  7. Model T Car

    Model T made for my 4 year old son from the great book of wooden toys. The first in the series, cherry, mahogany, maple. Finished with mineral oil. These are fun projects to work on, they are about 20cm long and 18cm high. I cut all the parts for the pickup, the tanker and another model T as...
  8. Toy Car with Leather Top •

    Nov 22, 2015 About 40 years ago I had young boys that needed a toy car and this is what I made. Amazingly it is still around and in pretty good condition. What was it? Maybe a Model-T? Kids didn't care. It was built when I had minimum tools so it's very basic and crude. The platform was 3/4...
  9. Hot Rod Car & Tri Plane

    Just love to build toys. I hadn't made any for a long time and last month I built an air plane it has reawakened in me my love of toy building. They're quite simple can be done in a day or so but I think that's half the fun no pressure, just get out in the shop and make something that moves...
  10. Furiosa's War Rig

    I've been making toy cars lately and thought the war rig from 2015's Mad Max: Fury Road would be fun. The truck and trailer are 4" tall and 23" long, alder with walnut accents. All 6 axles are 1/4" threaded rod with lock nuts epoxied on, and the trailer connection is a 1/4" brass rod. I...
  11. 32 Lincoln kb

    Had a lot a fun building this 32 Lincoll. I never had tried a car with a side board which was quite interesting to master. Here's the blog on it's build. http://lumberjocks.com/htl/blog/85794 The making of the wheels was also quite challenging and a lot a work.
  12. VW toy car

    VW toy car made with walnut and bubinga accents, axels and wheels purchased from Amazon. Finished with salad bowl finish. Design from Steve Good, he has large number of free plans for scroll projects at http://www.scrollsawworkshop.blogspot.com

  14. Hand Tools
    Christmas came really early this year. I have been building out my shop since buying a new house and told my dad I'm interested in learning more about how to really use hand tools. So yesterday, he showed up at my house with a drawer full of tools I'd never seen - tools he had from when he was...

    I'm currently selling mine. I will ship it if you want just send me a message. I think this is a fair price as it's been used only lightly and they never go on sale but I may entertain reasonable offers. http://atlanta.craigslist.org/eat/tls/3832915399.html
  16. Woodcarving
    Hi again gang, I have a solid walnut case I'm building and I need to inlay WM into the lid. Making it even more simple I will put the "W" on top of the "M" making it look like a design. But I am lost as to how to cut this into the center of the lid. I have cut border inlays before on my table...
