Hi,

Welcome to my internet site "Enjoy Making Wooden Toys".

I was born into a carpentry family so I have always had access to tools and timber. Enjoying making toys for myself when I was young.

I worked in earth moving for quite a period of my life so I had a good understanding of machinery. It seemed natural to combine the two so I started making toys that moved dirt about 20 yrs ago and have been professionally making toys and furniture for child care centres and markets ever since.

The challenge now is to put all my knowledge onto paper so over the next few months I will have lots of plans for you to use to "Enjoy Making Wooden Toys".

The most important thing is to have a go and surprise yourself when you find out that you can make great wooden toys. Take your time, put a bit of passion into the project and you will "Enjoy Making Wooden Toys" too. April 2009

Well I have been selling my plans now for 12months over the internet and now due to demand have decided to also sell the finished toys for Australian delivery. It turns out not as many people make things any more and more and more expect to be able to buy them. The postage overseas is prohibitive however we have sourced a courier company for Australian deliveries which seems quiet reasonable and which also made the shipping of our kits a bit cheaper than previously, so you may have noticed this shipping price go down. I have had to get my lovely partner Lee to change the internet site again to accommodate the extra pricing while trying not to confuse us all, I hope it worked.

It looks like Lee and I will be both be under the house making toys, this way I am still free to get some more plans ready. I have just finished a lovely series of Jalopies based on the T Model Ford. I hope you like them.

If you are in South East QLD we will have our toys on display and all of our plans at the Rathdowney Heritage Festival on the 4th of April 2010. Look for our truck near the tank stand at the end o the barn. March 2010

Well we have now been to the Heritage Festival the Brisbane Working with Wood show in May and the Sydney Working with Wood Show which was in June 2010 thanks again to our customers who dropped into our stand and said hi, it is really great to see real live customers rather than just E mails.

Look out for 'Can Do Books' at the Adelaide and Perth Working with Wood shows as they will have some of our plans for sale. Say hi to Stephanie.

In a couple of weeks I will be dropping in some of the Furniture, a Fire Station, a Bi Plane Rocker and the Barbie Dolls house to 'Lots for Tots' in Brisbane who will be stocking some of our toys in their store. If you want to see the toys drop in and have a look. Most of the furniture will have a Cedar stain. July 2010.

Enjoy
