Toy Train

I built this for a Christmas present for my great-grandson.  I used maple, cherry, and walnut.  I used most every tool I have in my shop.  Very challenging but fun to build.
Great toy train.  Very clean looking.
Your great-grandson will love it.

Figuring out how to do something you have never done is what makes a good challenge.

Cool... tag it with #woodentoybuild2022... to get into the draw for a gread Dutchy pattern.

If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD

A nice set, the grandson will be very happy this Christmas, Well done.

working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.

I second the suggestion to tag it with  woodentoybuild2022 (leave the "#" off though). Nice toy build!
The next best thing to a real steam train is your own hand made timber set, love it great granddad

That should end up being a treasure passed down for generations!
