More specifically, construction equipment. But, as far as my nephews are concerned, anything larger than a 4-door sedan (like mine) is a "biiiih twuck!!"

 

I don't have the original graphic on my phone, where I'm posting from. It's on the desktop, which Michael is currently playing World of Warcraft on, so I will post that tomorrow for anyone that wants a copy.

 

Here are pics of the tray that is drying overnight before I trim it, and the pieces waiting to be sanded and have handles glued to them.

Thanks!  As far as my own line, I don't know, maybe?  At the moment it's just a hobby.  The truck one is the only commission I've had and it was from my dad.   I have a farmer's market this weekend and a craft fair and a comic book convention in May so I'm prob going to make about 10 more tray puzzles like this one then switch back to jigsaw puzzles for the convention.  I'll decide how permanent this will be after I see how well I do at those things.

 

As promised last night, here is the pattern for that puzzle.  I printed mine on heavy duty glossy photo paper and used spray glue to attach it to my sanded birch.

Angela, I think you did really well on this project! I'm sure it will appeal to a lot of Children,

Thank you for showing, Bob  ;)  :thumbs:  :thumbs:  :thumbs:  :thumbs:

 I'm hoping it will appeal to a lot of grannies and grandpas!  That's usually who shops at farmers markets and craft fairs, along with crafters like me haha

Well Angela, I'm an old fart, but sometimes I'm called Grampa and those machines certainly appeal to me and my two Grandsons. Very nice. Hope they sell well at the fairs. Thanks for sharing with us.

Rob Roy.
