A wooden toy gets back to the basics of handmade craftsmanship, natural and safe materials, and best of all, good old-fashioned fun! Wooden toys are a joy to build, rewarding to give, and endless fun to play with-especially the ingenious designs . Detailed and clearly illustrated, this in-depth handbook offers instruction for constructing more than 50 wooden toys designed to appeal to a child's sense of imagination and playfulness! From a powerful bulldozer to a pioneer-inspired paddleboat, A brief introduction covers the basic techniques like gluing, sanding, and making wheels. Each project presents a meticulous diagram, a handy materials list, detailed step-by-step instructions, exploded views, and a photograph of the completed toy, for a foolproof building experience. More than 125 photographs show you how every piece goes together, and a special chapter is devoted to finishing or painting your toys for a professional look. As well as projects specifically for beginning woodworkers, such as pull-along trains and circus animals. Instructions for finishing and detailing (using child-safe finishes and materials) ensure that the completed crafts will last for years.
