Those are slick! Nice job.

Did you do those free hand, or from a pattern? Or did you draw the pattern? I've got some nephews that would go gaga over the train.

Must have some seat time in yellow metal.
Do you sell plans?

Are the crawler treads wood as well? This is one case where I wish the pictures were larger so we could see the detail.

Looks like you got that picture thing figured out, congrats.

These "toys" were made from plans available at toysandjoys.com. They have quite a variety of plans and are of good quality.

They also sell hardware kits for such things as the locomotives's wheels. However, the wheels (with treads) on the grader and the tracks on the excavator are part of the challenge of these projects.
