 I made a couple of Ute's / Small Trucks and a few small Cars for the Community Fundraiser 
 
The Ute's / Small Trucks are a freehand design of mine, made stronger and more playable.
 
The Cars are also freehand design of mine, made stronger and more playable.

Ute's / Small Trucks are around 12" [300mm] long and made from Offcuts/Scrap wood, some from my Furniture Makers friends at Living Timbers in Penrith. 

The Cars were just pine offcuts/ scrap wood awaiting a project.
 
 Starbond CA and Titebond Original are my "go to" glues.
 
 The finish as always in my "homemade wipe-on-poly" 
 
 A bit under 20 hours between the two projects, and good fun.

Very nice crowie, should be a hit at the fundraiser. 

At the rate you're churning these out crowie, we're gonna run out of tree before the charities get anywhere near their goal.

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

No way Alex, most of what I use is reclaimed or recycled offcuts / scrap wood away a project. 
The bigger the prize pool the bigger possibilities of a better the funds raised for the community club ✅

Great group of toys for lucky kids. Well done
Thank you ladies and gents for your kind words of encouragement and support. 
The community club has about 500 children in gymnastics class every week and runs with a volunteer management committee. 
Next year we celebrate 70 years in the local community but my family has only been involved a little over 30yrs.
