Handmade Wood Toy Monster Truck Based On The Play Pal Pickup Design - 496688424

 I have made a lot of these toy monster trucks. After watching my grandson try to push a toy car with small wheels across the carpet, I originally got the idea. I had made larger ones for him that he played with, but his hands were too small to handle them well. I looked at the size wheels I had and picked out some that would work. The standard 3/4-inch think pickup body would not do, so I doubled the thickness to 1-1/2-inch. It worked great, and my grandson loved the truck. I have since made a lot of Play Pal monster trucks. Not everyone likes them, but the kids do, and I have had people purchase as many as four in different widths and colors.

This wooden toy monster truck was handmade by me in my Toymakers Shop using traditional woodworking tools. I hand-finished the truck with amber shellac and acrylic paint. The toy is sturdy, durable, and built to withstand play.

My grandson has several of these in various colors, finishes, and materials. It is grandson tested and approved.

By pressing down with your finger over the rear axle and slowly applying pressure until the monster truck pops out from under your finger, the truck can do backflips. It takes a bit of practice to get the hang of it, but my grandson has been able to make them flip since he was three years old.

Other sizes and colors may be available via custom orders or in other listings in my shop.

I make items by hand from natural wood and wood products. They can differ from one piece to the next. The one you receive may be slightly different from the item in the listing photos. Wood thickness may vary slightly from the stated size.

Not for children under three years old or kids that are still chewing things. If the toy breaks, small parts may present a choking hazard. Small children should not play with this toy without adult supervision.

Custom orders are always welcome in my shop. Don't hesitate to get in touch with me with your needs.

Although this toy truck looks simple, it was challenging to make. The body width is right at the maximum I can cut on my scroll saw. I got my finger mashed several times. These are delightful toys for toddlers. Made from 100% hardwoods with the axles pined, they are nearly indestructible. It will be a unique gift for someone special and likely the last one ever. 

Approximate Size:
Length: 3-1/2 Inches
Width: 3 inches
Height: 2 Inches
Wheel Diameter: 1.5 Inches

My grandson has several of these in various colors, finishes, and materials. Despite his rough play, they are still going strong, outlasting factory-made plastic toys.

A handmade wooden toy monster truck made from solid hardwood for grown-ups and children over three. Sturdy, durable, and built to withstand a little boy's play.

My grandson has several of these in various colors, finishes, and materials. Despite his rough play, they are still going strong, outlasting some factory-made plastic toys. Like all my toys, they are grandson tested and approved.

I make every effort to make sure my toys perform well.  I carefully test each toy before it is listed in my store. Because of the design and their large wheels, they roll very well on just about any surface, including carpets.

With plenty of help from my grandson, we tested many ways of attaching wheels using the unscientific method of ramp races. The toy cars were rolled down a ramp to see which one went the fastest and rolled the longest distance. If you want a ramp to have races, please feel free to contact me. I can make these for you.

By pressing down with your finger over the rear axle and slowly applying pressure until the monster truck pops out from under your finger, the truck can do back flips. It takes a bit of practice to get the hang of it, but my grandson has been able to make them flip since he was three years old.

I made this toy truck by hand on my scroll saw. The thick laminated body was almost too thick for my scroll saw to cut. I banged my fingers a few times before I learned to keep them off the top of the toy truck body. They are pretty hard to make as toy trucks go, and I'm not sure I will ever make these again. There are several similar trucks currently available in my shop. 

A unique toy made by hand from 100% hardwood. Sturdy, durable, and built to last. An excellent gift for kids or adult monster truck fans.
