Walnut and oak with a natural Danish oil finish. The tracks are a lot a work and the blade will keep your attention on high till it's done but a really nice project to build. Here's the build blog.

This article is designed to introduce what I affectionately call my "Wall flower jig". If tends to crop up in a lot of pictures in my past projects but never gets the recognition it deserves. It is my Small Circle Cutting Jig. All of you out there that are into toy making are aware of the...

Jeep was made using T&J plans; however I wanted to make two door version so I did some alterations. One Jeep is made of Poplar / Walnut, the other is Hickory / Walnut. My friend has an older Jeep that is green in color so I made the Poplar one for him. Since it is easier to make multiples at a...

This model is made from a T and J pattern, which I got from my friend Dee1. It's about 30 cm (12") and made from three basic wood species, Meranti, Cherry and Ash. The roof is made from Mahogany, A mistake. It was my intension to make the roof Meranti also, but I selected accidentally Mahogany...

Just completed the trailer for the Western Star tractor. I purchased the plans from T&J at the same time with plans to put one of my excavators on for display. The trailer is made mostly of walnut and what I thought to have been Cherry (recycled from a shipping crate) is actually African...

After making drawings of the Fordson tractor I started with making a pattern for a VW bulli. Ducky helped with making a compleet SketchUp drawing. If you want to build your own you can purchase the pattern on my website. The first tree chaptors you can download for free. This build is much...

After building 3 32 Chevys over the years I think I finally made one that has the feel of a real HOT ROD. Here's the blog. This is a Toys and Joys plan, one of their older simpler plans, but it has every thing you need to get the shape and size just right. I lowered the roof 1/2". [chopped]...

Here is the Toys and Joys Belly Dump trailer, I had put off making it for a long time as it is quite a long trailer, with the Semi truck it is 45" long. I still haven't taken it into the house so haven't been banished to the dog house. LOL This was an interesting build if you like cutting a ton...

I really like Bob Cats a great tool around a construction site to get those jobs done that no one really wants to do. I also like these models because they sit just right on the back of a Low Boy trailer to fill in a lot of empty space. Here's the blog on the Bob Cat. Built with oak...

This tractor is another Toys and Joys plan. This is made of northern white hard maple. The front wheels are purchased along with misc dowels that are then fabricated for various parts. I gifted this to my brother in law. His father had recently passed away and they still have a John Deere B in...

Several of these have been posted on LJ already. The plans are from Toys and Joys and I took some design mods and construction techniques from htl and dutchy https://www.lumberjocks.com/projects/215074 . It was a fun project. Much more time consuming than I anticipated. Making the hydraulics...

After a long time my excavator is finally ready. He is about 50cm. tall, the most important used woods are Ash and Pacific teak (Intsia bijuga). I also made 2D drawings (65 pages, letter/A4) and colored templates (14 pages letter/A4) It was Ducky which did a impressive work making the 3D...

I Ebonized the project to hide the green poplar it was made with, came out a little dark but not to bad. The fenders and rims are maple so came out a little blacker which works out nicely. The only thing I don't like about ebonizing is it being water based it raises the grain so have to sand...

Finished up the Toys and Joys Semi using walnut and oak, putting a Danish oil finish to make the wood pop. When I was building the wheels for this project I went ahead and made the wheels for a trailer but still haven't made up my mind on which one to build. I've already made one lowboy and sure...
