Coaster Car

homemade coaster car

My son made this coaster car when he was nine. After we built a wooden boat together, he had to confidence to follow the instructions in the book Carpentry for Children by Lester Walker. I helped him with one saw cut after I got home from work, but he completed almost the whole project with no parental assistance.
