Here are my big boy toys.. Great items for the grandchildren..etc.

These were made from 1/2" inch baltic birch..they are strong enough to be sat on by an adult. Or at least by me (250#)

AS OF RIGHT NOW FEB 01 2012. I HAVE SOLD 7 OF THE JEEPS TO LOCAL DODGE DEALERS FOR THEIR JEEP DISPLAYS.
SOLD ALL SEVEN SINCE MONDAY.

Big boys toys? Are you talking about the blonde?:rolleyes: just kidding...
That looks great! How well do the parts fit together? glued, screwed? Does it roll?
Did you design that yourself? Good Job!:)

Eugene,

The fire engine and train are pretty cool as well but best of all I like the way you run your business.

They fit together really good... Just a little round over with sander some glue but very little. No screws. Five or six brads.

Actually that is the way the humvee is in real life... That way they can drag the driver over the seat to the back if he is hit or killed. The seat behind him is empty. This makes it quick and easy for the left had person to slide over... I wanted the first one to be correct with the military version.

The file is copy righted you would have to purchase the file. I can put you in touch with the designer. He is shooting at doing over 150 files that all of us can make easy fast money from.. I have in two days sold 6 of the jeeps. To local dodge dealers... At a price of $450.00 real easy money.

The designer is a friend of mine and he wants to work with a CNC company (to distribute) over 100 different designs he has made.

He has been designing for 30 years (mostly die cut and Laser) we are working together to make them perfect for CNC.

I am hoping ShopBot will take them on. The pictures do them no justice, these are very detailed patterns.

I am working on a new design that is over 6 feet long - an Apache helicopter. Pictures coming. he is trying to give shopbott a chance to come on board and distribute the patterns... so until they say no. he will not put up a web site... the friend of mine can design almost anything one would want.
