Photos No. 1 and

wagon with turned wooden wheels
in position. |

These wheels are
made from three 1" boards
glued together and turned as
shown in the drawing and photo
No. 5. Photo No. 4 shows the same
wagon with steel, rubber-tired
wheels and ball bearings. These
wheels are available and are
advertised through your local
crafts magazines. |

* HERE is a large farm type coaster
wagon that will provide the children with
a great deal of fun. The wagon was made
from hard wood such as maple or birch.
The detailed drawing on the right shows
the necessary dimensions and the
construction and assembly methods.
In the original model the bed and
under-carriage of the wagon were painted
with bright blue enamel and the slat
sides and tongue were left natural wood
and finished with several coats of white
shellac. |
