- After an amazing and extremely positive response from all of you, I have decided to continue with the toy designs. On today's show, I bring you a demonstration of how to make a flatbed truck toy for your young ones to play with. Why not take the opportunity to bring the young ones in the shop and have them make it with you. It's time well spent and memories that will last a lifetime.
As always I want to thank you so much for taking the time to stop by the channel. I hope you will consider liking and subscribing to the channel and while you are at it, why not click the bell so that you won't miss future notifications of the show. Thanks a ton for tuning in to the show.

Thats a nice lookin little truck!
Glad that you like it. Thanks for tuning in to the show
You are an exceptional TEACHER 🙏
Thank you so much for he kind words. I appreciate you tuning in to the show.
Great job again!!
Glad that you liked it. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
A cool truck for the grand kids, I'll need to make this one and make Cylinders like 55 gallon drum's as well as some cars to transport.
Definitely alter it to suit your needs. Glad to hear that you like the project. Good luck on your build and thanks for tuning in.
That's great
Glad that you liked it. Thanks for tuning in.
love it nice truck
Glad you liked it. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Love it! Not many bodies of water here (Southern Arizona) - 2 little lakes a few miles away. I’ll definitely try this!
Um....I hope you do Steve. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Can't wait to get my grandsons to help with this simple but clever designed truck.
I hope you have fun with it Jay. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Awesome more toy building with Kenny. These shows are my favorite overall...
Glad that you like them. Thanks for tuning in and leaving the kind words.
And I can't help but enjoy watching you make toys! Bring them on Ken! I like designing toys too, but mine are still in my sketchbook lol. I might make the 1926 Bugatti race car though...always wanted a real one lol. IU don't know about you, but I've got a large pile of sketches that I'll probably never build. But, I had fun drafting them out. I just finished designing a life-size Bluebird whirligig. I now have about 10 drawings or full size patterns. Well at least it keeps my 69 year old mind working lol. I enjoy your ideas. It keeps me wanting to create more. It might be contagious hahahah! Take care and I'll again be watching Tuesday. The #1 show!
I hope it is contagious Michael. This is something that the world needs more of. Creativity and crafting. Enough with the store-bought mass produced things that mean nothing. How about some homemade wooden toys that will last a lifetime and become family heirlooms. That's what it's all about. Thanks for tuning in and for the kind words.
Love your videos! Just really been getting into woodworking the last year or so. Your tips and even the videos have been a huge help with multiple projects.
Glad to hear that you are finding the show to be helpful Johnnie. Thanks for tuning in and if you ever have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can.
Wow, this truck with flat bed is wonderful that is something I need for a youth class that I am going to be doing in March, Ken you also need to make something for girls to make, I honestly love this Ken Thanks for sharing
I couldn't agree more Alan. I'm hoping for some doll furniture in the near future. While I think that boys or girls can play with any toy, there's just something special about making wooden doll furniture for the girls. Thanks for tuning in to the show and good luck on your project.
This is right up my street . Simply stunning little truck .
Glad that you like it Paul. Thanks for tuning in to the show and good luck on your build.
I used to build furniture. Now I have a 3 year old grandson so I find I’m mostly building toys. I really like your flat bed truck and look forward to seeing your other designs in the future. Keep preaching woodworking for children. My grandson at 3 years old can operate the drill press, a hand held drill, saw with a coping saw, use a hand miter box, use a screw driver and much more. (All with close supervision and some assistance of course.) He loves his time in the workshop and I adore having my buddy with me.
Good for you for sharing the love of woodworking Jim. Glad to hear that I'm not the only one that wants to see another generation carry on with the craft. Thanks for tuning in and for the story and the kind words.
Great little project. I really like when you build kid toys they are very cool. Keep up the good work. I will be sending a email for the pattern.Thanks
When I get your email, I will be more than happy to send the pattern your way. Good luck on your build and thanks for tuning in.
Hi! It is really a great Flat Truck Trailer. I build also wooden cars and maybe this is my next project. Please make more such videos...Best regards from Germany Kalli
Glad that you liked it Karl. Thanks for tuning in to the show. I'd love to see some of your toy builds. Feel free to send photos to kennye@acutabovewoodworkings.com.
Another great show Ken! Love the truck and I agree the load takes the truck to another level. Thanks again for sharing. Stay safe!
The best part is that the load is completely modifiable Earl. Place whatever you like on there. Blocks, smaller cars, logs, bricks. Whatever suits you. Thanks for tuning in and good luck with your build.
Awesome truck and so simple. What a great idea. I am going to make a couple to have to give to little boys whenever they come around my shop. Unlike adults, most kids are so happy when you give them something like that.
You're 100% right. It doesn't take much to please a child and sometimes, all it takes is a little bit of your time and a touch of kindness. Sounds like you've got both of those. Thanks for tuning in.
Nice design Thank you again for sharing, you are a great teacher.
You're very welcome Brian. Thanks for tuning in and for the kind words.
Thanks for sharing this video. One of my favorites is making toys. I wish I had your design talent.
Well I hope you will take advantage of the free pattern and build one of these for yourself Caroline. Thanks for tuning in to the show and taking the time to leave the kind words.
I really do enjoy your toy builds. I wish I had your talent and imagination. Thanks for the video.
You don't need imagination when I provide the free pattern Joel. LOL. Now the talent is something that comes with practice. Thanks for tuning in.
Kenny, that's a great project. Thanks once again for all your ideas 👍
You're very welcome Eddie. I'm glad that you liked it. Thanks for tuning in.
These builds are a total pleasure to watch. That truck turned out amazing. I think it’s time to take a break from getting my shop set up and build this for my son. I can’t wait for him to be old enough to come out in the shop with me.
Glad that you like the truck build Randy. Good luck on your project. I'm sure your son will be in the shop before you know it. After all, they grow up way too quickly. Thanks for tuning in.
Another great fun project!!! Keep up the great work.
Thanks for the kind words Bruce. I appreciate you tuning in this week.
Hi Kenny, love this one, well done this would be a great little project, thanks.
Glad that you enjoyed it Philip. Thanks for tuning in and for the kind words. It is very much appreciated.
Thank you so much for inspiring and encouraging us! I cannot wait to try this!
I wish you luck on your project Vicki. I know you can do this. Thanks for tuning in.
Love these little toy model projects kenny .
Glad that you like them. A little on the simple side but sometimes, that's all you need. Thanks for tuning in and for the kind words.
Ken, I just found your video site and I think it's great. My wife & I volunteer at a food center that cooks and distributes meals to the families of cancer victims and we work a good part of the year to be sure that if there are any children at these homes we can present them with a hand made wooden toy. This is outstanding and I will be sending an e-mail your way to request a copy of your plan, as well as any other appropriate toy that is available. Thank you and may the LORD bless you for your kindness.
Glad that you like the toy Rick. I wish you all the luck in the world with the food centre and with your toy making. I hope you enjoy the pattern. Thanks for tuning in to the show and for taking the time to leave your comment.
What a great skill that you have. I enjoy your channel look forward to the next one
Thanks for the kind words. I truly appreciate it. Thanks for tuning in to the show this week.
I love it Ken! Maybe another option for the wheels would be a hole saw. I don't know if I have 1 that small. Cant wait for the next one.
A hole saw would work perfectly Ken. Rock what you've got. There's always a secondary method to making anything. Thanks for tuning in and good luck on your project. (plans have been sent.)
Great design as always Kenny. My thumb is getting better and I'll be back in the shed soon.
Thanks for the kind words Mark. Glad to hear that you are on the mend and that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. (apparently that light is in your shed). Thanks for tuning in.
Kenny, really awesome build. I can just hear some grandchild or grandpa going “vroom” as the truck and trailer makes it’s way across the floor. Looking forward to seeing what comes next in the toy builds.
Those noises are coming from me Paul. LOL. Thanks for tuning in this week. Glad that you liked the build.
“Please make more”, Please make more”. No, seriously, please make more. LOL. Great toy.
There's a construction series in the works Scott. Skid steer. Steam roller. Bulldozer. All coming up on the channel. I hope you enjoy them. Thanks for tuning in.
Awesome video again, thank you. Question, I see your benchtop mounted clip board in the background, great idea, I need one, can you tell me where you got it ? If you made it, can you point me in the direction of the plans please
I made that plan stand on the show about two years ago. You can find the episode here. czcams.com/video/HIl07QzgV4o/video.html
I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Loved the build. Is it possible to get a copy of the plan?
I'd be more than happy to share the plan with you Larry. I gave full instructions as to how to get a copy at the end of the show. You can feel free to email me at kennye@acutabovewoodworkings.com and I will be happy to send you a copy of the pattern. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
I like your wooden toy collection. Can you give me your toy pattern for me.
Any pattern that I offer on the show, is available for free download from my website. Just visit acutabovewoodworkings.com and click on the free patterns section. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
what brand jigsaw blades do you reccommend?
Jigsaw or scroll saw? I've never been very brand specific for jigsaw blades but for the scroll saw, I am rather dedicated to OLSON blades. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in.
sorry I meant scroll saw. Thanks for your reply.@@acutabove_woodworkings
I would like your free pattern. How do I get it.
I am going to go out on a limb here and say that you didn't watch the entire show because at the end of the program, I describe in detail how to obtain the pattern. Either way, you can drop me a message on the channel's Facebook page or you can send me an email at acutabove_woodworking@hotmail.com and I would be more than happy to send the pattern your way Wayne. Thanks for tuning in.....even if it wasn't for the entire show. LOL.
