CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
My Favorite Toy Book -
Of the several wood toy building books I own this one is by far the best. It has very practical easy to follow instructions based on 3/4 lumber making the projects easy to build the only thing I recall as not being 3/4 inch were the narrow wheels.
I've built several of the projects in this book. Iam especially fond of the cars and trucks.
Patio-bali Wickers Indonesia is among the few best Indonesian manufacturers of high-end synthetic rattan furnitures. For years Patio-bali Wickers has been specializing in furnitures contract furnishing, by producing and exporting the highest quality fine wicker furnitures for overseas hotels, resorts, and fine restaurants.
Pottery-bali Indonesia exports decorative terra cotta pottery, handmade clay flower pots, large decorative vases, fine terrazzo pots, and cast stone planters. These home and garden potteries are available in traditional and contemporary design. All these home decor accents and garden crafts items are for wholesale only, at container size.
Something for everyone - 
As a semi-pro woodworker with a shop full of tools I found his step-by-step directions clear and his plans complete. Whether you have a Shopsmith or a Unisaw, you'll find something in this book for your kids or grandkids. I personally recommend the Pull-Along Train for the novice, and the biplane or P-40 for more experienced and better equiped weoodworkers. My only suggestion is this: Get better wheels. If you can't figure out how to mmake them, buy them.
It is indeed a great wooden toy book. -
I've been using this book to make toys for children for 15 years and find the drawings and instructions clear and easy to follow. I like how all the projects are designed around stock lumber. One reviewer mentioned that the drawings are on grids for easy scaling. I should note that only items that are odd shaped and can't be drawn full scale in the book are on grids, but that is all that is needed. The only toy that I would have liked to have been included is a dump truck, but I designed my own once I got the hang of how his trucks are designed.
Thorough with step by step instruction -
I echo what the other reviewers have already said. Excellent intro to wood toy making provided you have or can get access to tools. Good step by step instructions. This book is a good way to develop your woodworking skills without being overwhelmed.
