My Wooden Toy Cars

I crafted these toy trucks using traditional woodworking tools and techniques. Each part has been meticulously cut, sanded, and hand-fitted to guarantee the highest quality in the final product. The trucks are hand-painted with bright red acrylic paint, and the wheels are finished with a non-marring amber shellac.

Approximate Size:
Length: 6,25 inches

Height: 2.75 inches
Wheel Size: 1.25 inches

All the items I create are handmade using natural wood and wood products. Each piece is unique and may vary in appearance from one item to the next. The item you receive may differ slightly from the item pictured in the listing photos. The thickness of the wood used in your item may also vary slightly from the size specified in the listing.

It's important to note that the natural variations in wood grain, color, and knots make each piece one-of-a-kind and add to the item's character and charm. The variations should be expected and are not considered defects. If you have any concerns about the variations or would like to request a specific look or size, please contact me before placing your order, and I will do my best to accommodate your request.

Handmade Wood Toy Panel Wagon/Truck Testing the Wheel Fit

I'm building a set of Fat Fendered Freaky Ford toy cars from pine wood. The Panel Wagon is probably going to be my favorite.

Handmade Wood Toy Panel Wagon/Truck Patterns Applied and Holes Drilled

I use blue painter's tape on the wood so I can remove the patterns easily. The painter's tape sticks a bit too well and will sometimes damage the wood by pulling off some fibers. However, it is fast and easy.  

Handmade Wood Toy Panel Wagon/Truck Assembled Without the Wheels

Here the panel truck is ready for finishing. I haven't yet decided what finish to use. I'm not too fond of stains. I'm leaning toward a polyurethane or clear shellac. Polyurethane has a long cure time, but it does a fine job of bringing out the grain.

Other options include my oil and beeswax blend, Watco Danish Oil, or acrylic paint. These are very smooth, and I'm tempted to leave them bare wood.
