Toy dump truck
Old-fashioned, home-made, all wood toy dump truck. The inspiration for this toy came from the past before the advent of plastics and throw-away toys. There is no metal of any kind in this toy. Just wood, glue and a food safe finish.
My grandsons, when they were 2 and 4 years old, "requested" that I make a dump truck for them, and I figured that as long as I was making one, I should make a few, which are for sale here. Each is slightly different from the others.
All edges were rounded to be more comfortable in the hand.
The truck rolls easily and will glide by itself on even a slight incline. The bed of the truck pivots on a wooden dowel and will stay upright at 90 degrees. The bed can hold candy, Legos, stones and other small objects.
I added a cherry top to the driver's cab for decoration.
It measures maximally 10" long by 4-3/4" high by 2-3/4 wide.
This truck could become an heirloom piece. It is certainly one of my grandsons' favorites.
