Infos

In an era when everything is factory made of disposable plastic, well-made wooden toys stand out every time: They're simple, ageless, and just plain fun. The twenty projects in this book are smartly designed and built to last. They'll stand up to hard play and still look good when passed down from one generation to the next.



Whether you're looking for rugged toy trucks, delicate dollhouse furniture, or timeless bookshelves and toy chests designed to grow with your kids, Classic Wooden Toys is a reliable guide and helpful hand that walks you through the entire building process. Complete with step-by-step instructions and easy-to-follow photos and drawings, these projects are perfect for makers at all levels-from first time woodworkers to seasoned pros. With projects from Andy Rae, David Wakefield, and Chuck Hedlund, these twenty designs offer something for every maker-and hours of imaginative play for the lucky kids who get to play with them.
