Building a Toylander Electric Landrover for my Daughter
(1/5) > >>
raynerd:
I purchased the plans for this last year - the Toylander 2. Build manual and full size plans/templates £35.

After the usual 1 year maturing stage on the shelf, I thought the plans are now good enough to use... and the fact that my workshop is out of use for the next few weeks, this project is too big for my workshop so it should be a good filler for the summer.

Two things to say before we go any further:
1. I`m useless with woodworking! I`ve never really done anything before so this could be tough.
2. I`ll fight it for as long as possible, but this could very well end up being painted pink!

Here is my team along with the first bits of wood and templates:
 



Sides cut:


Front wings:


Front and Rear wings fitted to the base along with riser.


Sides sat in position just to see what it`ll look like!


Also started the metal work; here is the front axle ready for welding.



I could do with a mobility scooter if anyone has got one for cheap or scraps! Otherwise I`ll be selling my organs to afford the motor and controller!!
