<span style="font-family:Wingdings">J</span> I found many more sites than I had on my earlier searches.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The freaky Fords are great, thanks for that suggestion, those plans were purchased. I also found what I think will be perfect trucks for what we are after, a dump truck, cement truck, and a flat bed, from these I am going to add a tank
truck. I also bought a set of plans for a Bobcat, that is for my entertainment I don’t think I will be making them for donation…..

<p class="MsoNormal">They come as downloadable pdf files and cover everything you need to know to build them. They have toys for smaller kids and adults. I especially like the "Hot Rod Freaky Fords" as they are fairly quick to make and usually disappear first
at my church's annual bazaar to raise money to send kids to summer camp. Most of what I make is aimed at preschool kids. Older than that they seem to expect touch pads on their toys 8-)<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">If you are a woodturner I have some free templates (pdf's) for making cars by turning a 2-by-4 and then cutting it down the middle to create two bodys. I do a little enhancing with a bandsaw or scrollsaw. Here is an example of one of the
resulting cars. Two to four year olds love these cars and they are pretty indestructible.<o:p></o:p></p>

great beyond. His toys were for older kids, a logging truck, 2 different fire engines, a crayon truck, and I don’t remember what else he offered. It has always been in the back of my mind to tackle building trucks when I retire. I now have an idea to put
together a small group of guys to build toys for a local event that helps people at Christmas. One of the most popular toys are the wooden ones and the last few years the makers of the wooden toys have fallen off. So I am hoping to fill at least part of
that gap. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">I have some ideas on what I would like to do but I need guidance in the form of pictures, and or plans. I have poked around a bit on the internet for plans and have found some
interesting ones. But I feel like I have only touched on what might be out there and my search criteria is not hitting the motherload. <o:p></o:p></p>

I would like to expand the possibilities. Do any of you know of lists generated by medical personnel or medical institutions on guidelines for such toys? I would have to assume non-toxic finishes, but other things like no smaller than X (choking hazard),
things like that?<br clear="all">
