A few wooden toys

[Klaas]

Here are a few wooden toys I make with my ShopBot Buddy 32 x 24.
I will add a few more later.

They look like they will bring a lot of joy to some lucky little ones! Nice job.

Thanks guys I will try and post a few more.
These are just a few of the most popular toys I make.
We have a very active farmers market here and that's where I sell a lot of them.
I also have a vinyl cutter to make up stencils and logos to decorate them.
I use mostly white pine or spruce and a little hardwood
,some plastic bushings to make them last along time.
I draw them up in AutoCad or signlab ,save them in DXF.
I use to cut them out in my home built cnc .Supercam-Windows 98 in dos mode.
The ShopBot works a much better having tabs and a few other nice things.
maybe I will retire a little later still having a little fun

Hi every one I just had to add a few more toys.
I have now finished the rocking horse, It will be given to a young cowboy soon.
My grown up kids often say why did you not make toys like that for us.
I like all the displays you show on this forum
Thanks Klaas.

Klaas, great looking projects. I like the rocking horse and dinosaur. Wondering if you or anyone out there has pattern for a rocking tractor (preferable John Deere). I could do this all from scratch based on some ideas I have in my head but it would save a lot of time if I could get a pattern that is already done. Help if you can, Rob

Hey Klaas, thats nice looking play time.
I see you use Signlab you must have been in the sign industry at one time.?

Very nice work. I hope you don't have the same lead regulations for children's products that we have here.

Hello Rob I have no tractor rocker plans but I thought the layout Russ set up looked prety good,
I sometimes use google imiges and type in wooden toys to get ideas there are lots there.
Dan yes I use signlab a lot I use my vinyl cutter to decorate my toys and still do a few truck doors now and then.
Our laws on painting toys are not like the US but we do have to follow our rules like no lead in paint small size and loose parts ect.
Love my small buddy 24 x 32 works great enjoy your forum learned a lot from you guys Klaas

most of my plans are copyrighted so I could not give them to you.
