Editorial Reviews

Review

"These are fairly uncomplicated plans – any woodworker worth his sawdust should be able to make one in an evening. Even if you're new to the craft these plans are about as basic as you can get. And, because they're so small – most are about 3" long – it's a great way to use up some of those left over pieces of wood you've been stashing away."

(Canadian Woodworking and Home Improvement)

Great book for beginner to exptet!

Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2017

Verified Purchase

Great book, not just for beginners. As a mid level woodworker, it’s cool. It has a ton of cool designs, but more, it explains the path to a successful project.
One more thing, there is a lot of laminating in the book which means a table saw, band saw and a good sander. You can skip the laminating and go ahead with one wood.

Just right for Christmas shoe-boxes.

Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2017

All of these projects are quick and simple to make. The designs allow easy mass production if you are looking to give the toys away. Even better, these will quickly clear your shop of all those scraps that accumulate over the year. So, other than some glue, these toys are just about free to make.

Nice Designs

Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2021

Verified Purchase

Cute little designs that require a scroll saw and a means of getting very thin hardwood. The designs call for wood as thin as 1/16" so unless you have thickness sander you'll have to use Baltic plywood or resaw wood on a well tuned, sharp bandsaw with a 1" blade. Essentially, you'll be making veneer on a bandsaw and then cutting the parts on a scroll saw. They do make nice Xmas ornaments. I don't have a thickness sander so it requires double sticking the veneer and sanding with a sandpaper block before glue up. For those grandfathers/mothers with old eyes reading the fine print is a challenge.

Great project ideas

Very basic - just okay!

Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2017

Verified Purchase

I am extremely disappointed in this book. The designs, far from being little "masterpieces" or worthy of being "heirlooms", seem uninspired and extremely basic. Only 6 of the 15 designs are pictured on the covers with 2 of the toys on the front cover being repeated on the back. That should have given me a clue but I had high hopes for the other 9 designs. Those hopes failed to be realized. In addition, the number of different wood thicknesses called for can run into major expense if you are not lucky enough to have a thickness planer and/or a thickness sander or do not plan to make dozens of these toys/ornaments. And while I have a fairly good supply of woodworking equipment, I have neither of these items. I cannot see myself expending the time or the energy to complete one these projects and will be returning this book.

Great fun projects using mostly material that would get tossed out or into the shop stove.

Nice exercise in refining one's skill. Small projects require care and thought to safely exicute yet produce fun-sized results.

Tiny heist ja Klein, niedlich und diesem Fall auch noch WINZIG. Die Fahrzeuge sind alle leicht zu bauen. Die Grösse entspricht in etwa den Fahrzeugen aus den Ü Eier. Oder den Weihnachtsbaum Anhänger. Gutes Buch, hatte mich jedoch in "Tiny" verschätzt.

Nice no-nonsense guide to making some unusual ornaments - but if you intend to make the tractor on pages 28/29 you need to to contact the fox chapel website customer service team to get a revised plan as the dimensions for component A are incorrect. I got my revised plan as a pdf within a few hours. Excellent response!
