Beautiful handmade toy paddleboat for sale
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MESE:IT
This finely crafted boat is handmade by a toymaker in Chester County Pennsylvania using five different species of wood. Each level of the boat is glued and pegged, then coated with five coats of high gloss polyurethane, which makes this a very durable toy. When the rubberband powered oak paddle is wound, the boat will slowly paddle the length of a bathtub. This beautiful paddleboat measures 10 inches long, 5 1/2 inches wide, and 6 inches high. It makes for a delightful interactive toy. |

You've provided the inspiration for anyone here to copy it. |

Nice looking boat. Center of gravity too high to work well in bathtub
though. and the poly finish looks good but doesn't hold up well to use in water. Nice shelf project though. sweetsawdust toymaker "deeny" wrote in message ups.com... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MESE:IT This finely crafted boat is handmade by a toymaker in Chester County Pennsylvania using five different species of wood.
