Our Toys of the Month for October are the Chinook Helicopter and the Tic Tac Toe / Three-Man Morris Game. The plans for the helicopter are similar to most of our rolling toys, but adds two propeller blades on top. The Tic Tac Toe / Three-Man Morris Game is a bit more complicated.  But our plans provide step-by-step instructions to help with the setup of repeated drilling and router cuts for this game.  

The Chinook Helicopter will be well received by our younger kids, and the game will appeal to the older ones...and perhaps their parents and grandparents as well!  

Templates and kits will be available for members to pick up at our October monthly meeting.  See Vince Failla as you enter the Carpenters Union 301 Hall. Or contact Vince for more information at 317-408-7511.

Our Toys of the Month for August are the Monster Truck and the Wooden Kazoo. The plans for the truck are similar to most of our rolling toys.  The Kazoo will take a bit more concentration to details to get it working right, but older kids will enjoy using it once they get the hang of it.

Templates and kits will be available for members to pick up at our August monthly meeting.  See Vince Failla as you enter the Carpenters Union 301 Hall. Or contact Vince for more information at 317-408-7511.

As usual, make 13, keep one for you our a grandchild, and return the other 12 at a future monthly meeting.

Our Toys of the Month for August are the Yellow Submarine and the Gravity Car. The plans for the Yellow Submarine were submitted by Lee Van Duyn and require work at a band saw to complete.

Our Toys of the Month for July are the Tiny Car and the Tangram puzzle. The Tiny Car is adaptation from the Little Car design that was the October 2016 TOM. This design appears to be more of a roadster with a rumble seat.  Please ensure the wheels turn freely.
