Title: Doll Cradle and pick-up truck
Post by: Jim Finn on November 18, 2015, 10:06:21 pm

24" long cedar doll cradle and Pine truck with one inch wheels.  I just made another 125 of the trucks for our club's Christmas give away.  I made just the trucks not the trailers this time.

Really nice job they both should bring a smile to a bunch of kids and adults alike.

Nice work Jim. I like the idea of your club giving things away. I have tried to introduce this concept at the Men's Shed I belong too. When we have market stalls I think giving the kids something we have made is a great way of getting the parents in to see our items that we have for sale. A couple of times I have shown the kids some simple magic tricks and then showed them how to do the trick, afterwards, the parents walk around our stall and invariably buy something. I am winning bit by bit and they are starting to see the benefits of approaching the kids first.
