Toddler Train Stool

[ryan_k]

I'm almost finished a very realistic train bed for my 2 year old son, decided to make the step stool a little fancier than normal.

Baltic birch plywood, built with a TS-55, Carvex 420, MFT, and DF500.

Picked up some self levelling feet from Lee Valley, along with some General Stain Java gel stain.  I also bought a circle cutter for my drill press from LV and I got impatient cutting the circles as I was doing it in an unheated garage at -20ºC.  I think the burnt wood on the wheel edges works really well!

Thanks for the comments guys! Was definitely a fun build.

Just sort of made it up as I went along, but used the dimensions I found on this webpage (scroll all the way to the bottom, it's the last image)" http://americanoo.blogspot.ca/2010_09_01_archive.html.  Scaled everything to 48" long and 7" high.
