1st your a good teacher , making these wheels is a lot of work but they are a game changer , worth the work . Very good video ! Thank you for the class ..
Glad that you got your plans Gary. Good luck on your build and as always, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks for tuning in to the show. I look forward to seeing your version of the model. acutabove_woodworking@hotmail.com
I really enjoyed the series on the 29 stake body. I just ordered the plans so I can work on building one as soon as the weather warms up some. I told the gentleman that I got the idea from watching your u-tube series. If you let me now your email I will sent you a picture when I get it finished. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills with us amateurs.
I'd love to see your version of the model Doswell. You can always email the show at acutabove_woodworking@hotmail.com. You can always find the contact information of the show on the main page, in the "about" section. I hope this helps. Good luck with your build and thanks for tuning in and for the kind words.
Kenny, as always, it was a great series. The POP that the danish oil created put it over the top. I've been working on a backhoe loader with steering. Practice makes perfect unless you repeat mistakes like mine. There are 2 cams for the steering that measure 5/8 Z 5/8 X 1 1/8 with two through holes and one 90 degrees through one half through the bottom one. I made them 5 times because I forgot to "mirror" them. Photos will come when complete. Thanks for the builds. Now I can make wheels for the Toys n Joys Dulley
LOL. I wouldn't sweat it too much. I've made mistakes multiple time before and it's no big deal. I think the worst part of repeating a mistake is the realization that even though you checked it 250 times before cutting or drilling it, you STILL messed it up. LOL. Thanks for tuning in and for the kind words. I look forward to the pictures of your build.
Kenny, WOW!!! This model came out great. I especially like the final look of the rear tires and rims. This was a great series. You sure make it look easy. Color me impressed.
I can always count on you for some kind words on the show Paul and I appreciate you for that. Thank you for tuning in again this week and for your dedication to the show over the years.
You're very welcome Alonzo. I'm glad that you enjoyed the series. You are not alone apparently in being sad that it's over and from the popularity of the series, I may have to consider producing another piece by piece tutorial in the near future. Thanks for tuning in and for the kind words on the show.
I've only watched the first three episodes so far, but I ordered the plans afterwords. I hope to watch the complete series a couple of times before beginning my build sometime early to mid next year.
Well I hope you find the rest of the series to be helpful Johnny. If you ever have any questions, I'm always willing to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in and good luck on your build.
true ,but you need to recognise not everyone got all the tools like what you ve got it ..but you are 100% good worker in doing all them things ..have a great christmas to you and your family ,and enjoy 2022 ...
Thank you for the kind words Michelle. Merry Christmas to you and yours. Although not everyone has the same tools I have, the methods that I demonstrate on this show are merely suggestions and for every process, there are about 10 different methods to achieve the same results. I hope you will try a model like this Michelle and come up with methods of your own to make the various parts. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Glad that you liked it Randy. These models are truly a lot of work but they are also a lot of fun. Filming it really slows down the process so it is nice to know that it is appreciated. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
I have made the boom crane in the past but I have another T&J crane pattern. Maybe it's time to build it. Thanks for tuning in to the show and for chiming in with your suggestion.
Очень хорошее видео. Ждал его с прошлой пятницы. Колеса получились на славу!!! Спасибо за показанный способ изготовления колес. Интересно, можно сделать такой Ford из сосны? Я очень доволен всеми 7мь видео. Воодушевился на изготовление этого Ford. Спасибо, что напоминаете про технику безопасности. Здоровье прежде всего!
This model can be made from any species of wood that you wish. Although pine is a much softer wood, there is no reason that you could not make this truck from it. Pine is definitely easier to shape and sand. Good luck with your build and thank you for tuning in to the show.
An idea borrowed from somewhere else: cut axle washers from the lid of a plastic container with hole punches, if you have them. Glue won't stick to them, saves a dab of plastic from the trash, and saves a little bit of money.
That's a great idea Floyd and I will be incorporating that into future models. They would also be a lot thinner which would be a bonus. Thank you for this suggestion and for tuning in to the show.
Great Build!!! I built one a few months ago before your series. Wished I would have waited. You showed me ways that will improve my next build. Thank God I have many grandkids to share these toys. Thanks and have a Happy Holiday!!!
Thanks for the kind words Jay. I'm glad to hear that you were able to take something positive away from the series. Merry Christmas to you and yours and good luck on your next build. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Oh Kenny! You aren't just a craftsman, you're an artist! That truck is beyond beautiful. This was an enjoyable series for sure. Here is hoping you and your family have a safe, healthy, and joyous Merry Christmas. Take care!
What a great build! Thanks for the attention to detail. I’m going to start on mine right after the holidays and I know the tutorials will be of great value. Thanks and Merry Christmas!
Good luck on your build. If you have any questions at any point in time, please feel free to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Man that turned out gorgeous! I'm so excited I ordered my plans and got it yesterday! I have a couple of weeks worth of wrapping up and getting things tidy around my house but I cannot wait to get started on this project! Kenny yours is absolutely gorgeous, thanks for the video and the confidence. When I get mine done, I will post the pics to the fb pages! 👍
That's fantastic Kevin. I look forward to seeing your version of this model. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have along the way. Good luck on your build and thanks for tuning in to the show.
I'm glad that you liked the series. I know that you are no amateur when it comes to model making so I appreciate the kind words. Thanks for tuning in and for taking the time to leave your comments.
What a shame it's finished, I have really enjoyed it. Anyway mine's not done yet. Unfortunately I don't have a pen mandrill, I've sent for one but of course it will not arrive now until after Christmas. Something to look forward to. Many thanks for the series and your patience. May I take this opportunity to wish you and your family a merry Christmas and very happy new year.
Merry Christmas to you and yours as well Piet. I hope it's a great one. Like Dwight stated, using a 1/4" diameter bolt will also work. You can cut the head off the bolt and then centre punch one end to accept a live centre at the tail stock. The head stock is held in place with a drill chuck, mounted with a morse taper. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
What a great video to finish the build on. I am looking forward to getting a lathe. Man, that is a great looking truck. I totally enjoyed this series of videos. Thanks, and Merry Christmas.
Someone mentioned after the build was finished that I should take one of the extra tires and add it to the bed of the truck for a spare tire. I honestly can't believe that I have never thought of that but it's a fantastic idea. Thanks for tuning in Jared. I hope you enjoyed the series.
I think I finally got the confidence to tackle a Toys and Joys plan. This series really helped deciding and I'm definetely going to watch again. I'm just worried that in my country wood thickness is very limited, my only tools are scroll saw, drill and sander and we use metric system, not imperial. But I'm still going to try, I'll trace the plans onto a computer and adjust according to my needs. Hope it works, I'll let you know how it turned out! :))
For starters, I applaud you for taking the plunge and giving this a try. That's the first step. While the model will be challenging with the tools that you have, I honestly don't think that you can't do it. I am sure that you can. You may just have to think about some of the pieces and how to construct them. I think your sander will also come in handy for shaping some of the pieces. I really look forward to seeing your finished project. Thanks for tuning in and good luck on your build. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.
Ken I have to say WOW the truck came out amazing I like how you added the extra detail to the toy, I would keep the truck for myself to display but I know any boy or girl who receives this would be in 7th heaven I know I would, what a wonderful job. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family
Merry Christmas to you and yours as well Alan. I hope the holiday season brings you everything you wish for and that the jolly fat guy is good to you. Glad that you liked the final results on the model. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Hi Ken first off I think you do a great job, I am just about to start on the Ford Stake Bed Truck, I would go over chapter may be a dozen times as I have said to you before, I do have short term memory loss. I could woffel on a good bit more but I will cut to the chase ! First off are you using 100 120 grade sanding paper for leaving on you levelling jig. I have set up the straight edge and square system for the lay out great idea, I do have trouble seeing the lines you draw on the wooden parts I have a fine tipped black pen that I can rub the line out if it does not work out any how I will let you know I have a number of jigs for getting accurate line but I am not the best at using them Any how bye for now stay safe Regards Col from Australia
I am assuming that you mean the sandpaper on the MDF. On one side, I have 120 grit and on the other side I have 220. It works well for sanding most parts and will still keep your crisp edge. I hope that you are able to make a successful model and that you will send me photos of the finished project when you are done. You've got this. Just take your time and think each piece through and you will do just fine. Thanks for tuning in Col.
Sad, sad, saaaad moment here Ken. Whole build is over..... Ford looks awesome!!!!! Great job as every other build. Hopefully we will not have to wait for next build too long. Any clue what you will want to build next??
I'm not sure what I'm going to build next Marcelo. I have been toying with the idea of doing another model series but only using hand tools for the most part. I just have to decide what model I want to make. I will wait a little while though so that I can get some other shows filmed and posted. I don't want to turn the channel into a model building channel. LOL. Thanks for tuning in and for the kind words. It's appreciated.
Looks amazing. The whole series is wonderful. Ordered the plans and will give this a shot. I don’t have a lathe yet. Any suggestions for a way around that little issue?
Glad that you liked the series and I wish you good luck on your build Gary. As for the wheels, there's no reason why you couldn't rough cut them with either a scroll saw or a hole saw and then sand them to shape on a drill press with the wheel mounted to a 1/4" diameter bolt. You are not the first to ask and it sounds like I need to produce a show on alternative methods of making wheels. Thanks for tuning in to the series.
That's a great idea Randy and I can't believe that I never thought of that. I will have to make a rim for it and glue it in the back of the bed as the spare tire on the model. Thanks for tuning in and for the suggestion. I appreciate it.
Really enjoyed watching this build. It came out fantastic. The procedure for creating the rear wheels was that in the plans or or own creation? Really slick how that detail came out.
The rear wheels are shown on the plan, however they do not tell you how to accomplish most of it. The are general idea and instructions as to how to create the wheels but for the most part, you are on your own to figure out what method works best for you. I hope this helps Dwight. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the series and the final project. Thanks for tuning in sir. Always great to hear from you.
what is the name of the blocks you use to measure the height when you are going to put the slats on the cart body, those little black squares with a number of thickness?
The blocks you are asking about Simar are called set up blocks. They are made by Veritas and are available at Lee Valley tools. Here's a link. www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/tools/hand-tools/marking-and-measuring/45089-veritas-set-up-blocks I hope it helps. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Hello , I just bought a lathe to make my wheels, what kind of mandrel do you use to mount them on the lathe ? Does any kind of pen mandrel would do it to work every wheel individualy ? Thanks !
