Toy Semi Truck and Toy Cars

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Toy semi trailer made for my nephew's 2nd birthday. Truck was made primary of ash. The stripe and wheels are sapele. The box top lifts off so he can place toys or other objects inside. I do not have a cnc so the Woodcraft Store in Buffalo Grove assisted for a small fee. They were very helpful. The cars are left over ash, with some small bits of purpleheart for accents. I created a template with some plywood and used that to shape the ash. Wheels were store bought on the cars.

TV Stand

Television stand for my daughter. Made from white oak and finished with polycrylic. She wanted a clear finish. Stand measures 60×24 x 30. Legs have dados on the back side with holes for dowels. So the lower and middle shelf have 2 dowels at the point of connection to each leg and sit in the dado as well. Top has a slight chamfer. She asked me to add the x brace on the side to match a bookcase she had. Fits a nice big tv, components, and some storage baskets. Thanks
