The handmade wooden toy tow truck body has been thoroughly sanded and is ready for painting.

My Five Truck Fleet

The handmade wooden toy tow truck body has been carefully sanded and is now ready for painting. I took my time to ensure that the body feels smooth to the touch and eliminated all sharp corners. The opening for the hook has been reshaped to accommodate the tow hook that will be added later.

But Now I've made a lot of these little wooden toy trucks. Each one is carefully cut on my scroll saw and hand-sanded until they are smooth to the touch. Any toys with no repairable defects are dent to the designer kindling pile. My goal is to make toys as high quality as I possibly can. This version of the truck is hand finished with clear shellac and hand-rubbed, waxed, and polished to a satin finish. These are some of my favorite toys to make. The simple design lends itself to extensive variation. A cute vintage style kids gift for boys or girls. Handmade and hand-finished to perfection. You can easily convert this toy into Christmas Ornament for that vintage Christmas look or use it with other small wooden toys to as nursery decor.

In daylight or 6500K+ LEDs it practically screams orange.
