Post by: bigred7469 on September 05, 2011, 09:50:26 pm

Well my Son is in his first year of Cub Scouts and before we know it, the Pinewood Derby will be here so if any body has a design for one so him and I can start on it.  Thanks

There are plenty of templates out there, just as Mr Google :)

For example:

ask Harold (http://stevedgood.com/community/index.php?action=profile;u=2506), he has a design that already brought a victory to his son.

Red -

I am a recently retired Postmaster in a small town in SW Virginia.  Lot's of folks used to come in to weigh their cars on my scales.  It always seemed that the Dad's were more excited about the project than the kids :)  Scouting is a great organization and spending quality time with your son is such a blessing.  Have fun and enjoy.
