Wood truck, finally finished

[Clocks and Crafts]

I finally finished this large scale truck, ( 30 inches long ) that I started over a year ago.
It is my own design, and the third one I have built. Each one I do has more detail than the last one.
It is made mostly from Pine, with some Basswood and Birch dowel.
The truck with a trailer is about 6 feet long.
The trailers are from Wildwood plans, as is the front end loader.
They have been modified to include more detail.
Thanks for your interest.

Amazing detail, Nick! Awesome workmanship to create one heirloom truck. Are you planning to enter it in some shows? It would look good with some blue ribbons.

Nick, those are beautiful ! Yes, I agree with Jim, you should enter them in a contest or a local fair. They are winners, for sure. Thanks for showing us.

Hi
Thanks to everyone for their kind comments on my work.
The truck was entered in the last Sroll Saw and Woodworking Magazine contest, along with one of my motorcycles. The motorcycle earned an honerable mention, which was much appreciated.
This is my first post, on my first blog, something I never imaged myself doing, and I think I suprised my more, by doing it.
I will post more of my work as time permits.

Thanks
Nick
