Toy Cars
I promised I would post some plans for toy cars. To align the fenders on the body I use a couple of axle pegs, sanded and waxed so the glue won't stick. Remove glue squeeze out with a plastic drinking straw. When gluing I use my finger and remove about a 1/8" strip around the outside of the fender to minimize squeeze out. Fenders and body parts are rounded with a round-over bit on a shaper or router table. I buy the wheels and axle pegs already made. If you want black wheels, use water based alanine dye.
Remember to search on toy cars because I will be posting more someday.

Re: Toy Cars
That is a very fine fleet! I think my kids are a bit old for this now, but there are always the grandkids!
PS : Thank you very much!

Re: Toy Cars
Dale, Thanks for the carve files. I'm thinking I'll be carving each one. Birthdays and Christmas come to mind.
Thanks again,

Re: Toy Cars
Thank you very very much for the files
I have just ordered a smaller 6040 machine.
This will be perfect for that machine.

Re: Toy Cars
Thank you Dale that is most generous!!!
Every year at Christmas our Church sends gifts to kids all around the world, this year I plan on making a contribution using your files that I downloaded.
Also thanks for the building tips. What type of wood and finish do you use? I assume a child save finish and where do you get the wheels and axles?
Thanks,
Mark

Re: Toy Cars
Thank you Dale
This generous offer will come in very handy for my next project.
Our church bazaar is in about a months’ time and they are asking conurbations for the “White Elephant” table.
I guess I will have to get busy and include some of these as “white elephants” together with Michael’s Paradise Box that I adapted to a Bible Box and of course three of the stunning Tripod Pedestal Tables.
