My Grandsons Wooden Toy Truck Martin Motors Antique Car Carrier Under The Christmas tree Order Yours Today Many of us grew up playing with wooden toys as children, and some may even have fond memories of the unique smell of wooden toys. But have you ever wondered about the art of creating wooden toys? Today, we'll take a closer look into the world of a toymaker and learn about the process of crafting wooden toy car carriers and cars. I am a toymaker who creates wooden toy car carriers with three cars in his shop. I have been in the craft for years, building wooden toys using traditional woodworking tools and techniques. My toys are made from high-quality wood, which is durable and long-lasting. Creating each toy is time consuming and requires skill and precision. I start by selecting the wood used for the toy car carrier and cars and then use traditional woodworking tools, such as a saw, drill, sander, and plane, to shape and mold the wood into the desired shape and size. Once the

Wooden toy car wheels, hand-finished with amber shellac. Buy The Martin Motors Car Carrier As a toymaker, I always pay attention to the details of my toy collections. One of the essential aspects of toys is the wheels. They contribute to the toy's overall design aesthetic and affect how the toy moves and performs. That's why I'm very particular about the wheels I use on my toys. I usually purchase most of my wheels as long as the desired style is available. However, I avoid black painted wheels because they don't look quite right, and their flat black color needs to be coated to prevent marring on certain surfaces. That's why I use shellac on the wheels of almost all my painted toys. Shellac is an excellent option for coating wheels because it's easy to apply, wears well, and is safe even if kids chew on the wheels. It also provides a smooth, glossy finish that enhances the wheels' appearance, making them stand out on any toy. I first sand the wheels to remo

Test fitting the parts for a wooden toy car carrier truck. See At Goimagine After the first coat of shellac is cured, I lightly sand it to remove the fuzzies stiffened by the shellac. I prefer to use the red 3M Scotch Brite pads for this. It gets into tight places easily and lasts a long time. This process repeats until I am happy with the finish. The photo is a test fit to make sure everything fits like it should. If I had a large enough piece of clear wood, I would have cut all the pieces at the same time like I would a puzzle, ensuring that the pieces would fit. For this project, I am using wood I have on hand. When cutting individually, I must be very careful to follow the lines. https://odinstoyfactory.com/ #odinstoyfactory #handmade #woodtoys #madeinusa #madeinamerica.

After applying a coat of shellac, I hang the parts on a copper wire and wait for the shellac to cure before sanding them again. After the first sanding I apply several coats of clear shellac. I like using shellac. It cures rapidly, and I can get a beautiful finish with it. Shellac is food-safe and hypoallergenic. It is used as a coating for many foods, so children chewing on it is not an issue. While not as durable as some synthetic finishes, it's easily repairable. I am using a dewaxed clear shellac, also known as Sealcoat, for the truck and car bodies. I use pieces of copper wire to form hangers and hang the parts until they are cured enough to sand and apply the second coat. These are hanging on the front rail of my Shopsmith. http://odinstoyfactory.com #odinstoyfactory #handmade #woodtoys #madeinusa #madeinamerica

Handmade wooden toy truck, Martin Motors antique car carrier. All parts are cut and ready for pattern removal and sanding. All of the parts are cut. Before I remove the patterns, I like to true up any spots on the edges that need it. I use a belt sander (6-inch and one-inch wide belts) for the flat areas and outside curves, a rotary tool, hand sanding, and sometimes files for tight inside curves. I have an oscillating spindle sander, but the smallest radius it can sand is 1/2 inch. Once this is done, I remove patterns and sand the sides. Leaving the patterns in place while sanding the edges helps me to detect flaws and not overshoot the edges of the pattern. Since these are cut on a scroll saw, the edge sanding at this point is more of a shaping operation than smoothing.  https://odinstoyfactory.com/1632377592/ #odinstoyfactory #handmade #woodtoys #madeinusa #madeinamerica

The tuck bed freshly cut with the pattern still attached sitting on my scrollsaw. This is the trailer for the Martin Motors Antique Car Carrier. The pattern had to be printed on two pages and spliced together, which presents a problem as it prevents the solvent from removing the glue under the tape I use to hold the pattern to the wood. The long and straight cuts are the most challenging part of cutting the trailer, and it's easy to go off the lines if you get distracted. If this happens, it may not be fixable if you go too far in the wrong direction. I could cut outside the line and sand to the line, but at that point, I might as well be using a bandsaw.  https://odinstoyfactory.com  #odinstoyfactory #handmade #woodtoys #madeinusa #madeinamerica
