As much I don't like those yellow push blocks, I have to say, that was very clever ad placement!

@twxedge5615 9 лет назад

I'm subscribed to you!

@ReinaldoAntonioAdv 9 лет назад

Nice, very good.

@DavidClunie 9 лет назад

***** Matthias Wandel you guys are so great :)

@fredlafnear4874 9 лет назад

I'd rather see those lil yellow ads the every video about a pantarouter :(

@peterbrownwastaken 9 лет назад

I use that same sorting method for cleaning up the shop. Love the colors! Cause kids aren't into fine finished exotics....

@mtusarmy1 9 лет назад

True story

@monkwerks 9 лет назад

Every discerning 3 year old should prefer zebrawood over purple.

@HonestDoubter 9 лет назад

This is a lie Peter. You don't clean your shop! ;)

@retsaoter 9 лет назад

Fr. Thomas Bailey, OSB What if it is not just purple, but purpleheart?

@monkwerks 9 лет назад

retsaoter now you're talking: purpleheart, ebony, yellowheart, verawood, and bloodwood. The building blocks for the "real" woodworker's children.

@edemyre8993 Год назад

Well done. Probably start on this project over the weekend.

@timherrmann7066 9 лет назад

Great Job, Steve. I've been building block sets for years for my children and relation's children. They make great, safe gifts, and kids play with them for a very long time.

@SheepDogReady 9 лет назад

Thanks Steve! I will build this for my son for Christmas, he is nearly 3 yo and it will be perfect!

@JamieEnglish 9 лет назад

Steve, great video! I'm going to make one of these for my son. He's 14 months old. Thank you for taking the time to make your videos.

@pumpkinhead002 9 лет назад

The way you segway into your micro-jig adverts is fantastic! gets me everytime! Haha!

@reenathiru1781 4 года назад

Thank you for making this awesome video I cam across... haha to the realistic method of how children will "sort" their blocks away... 😂

@AdamCraigOutdoors 9 лет назад

very simple and straightforward. just the project for kids!!! Thanks Steve

@BlackCat_2 9 лет назад

That's cute. :) My son loved those kind of blocks when he was little. Now he is into Lego building blocks. - Heidi

@MrTincansailor 9 лет назад

COOL... I had a cart and block set when I was a kid

@bogsdolics 9 лет назад

Hey S thanks for giving us a week off from your { great } videos next week ,means one less project to make I am only about 120 projects behind you , G

@SRVandDoubleTrouble 9 лет назад

After watching this video, I made a set of blocks with 12 shapes for my own kids and 5 other sets for nieces/nephews to have. An easy project that makes a great gift idea. Thanks for sharing.

@frankorona1 9 лет назад

Wonderful toy for the kids, thanks for sharing, Steve.

@franrabideau8838 7 лет назад

Really like your videos. That's how I got started doing woodworking when I was looking for something to build and saw your videos.

@TomsBackyardWorkshop 9 лет назад

When I was a kid I had a little dog cart that I pulled with a rope. It was pretty clever it had legs attached to the wheels that would go up and down and I'm not sure but I think the head even went back and forth. I think one of my relatives made it for me. It would be really cool to see you make one of those.

@craigly182 9 лет назад

Steve you are awesome! I look forward to Friday every week :)

@SkullyWoodMetal 9 лет назад

Great project Steve, my granddaughter will love them.

@cyndyw4481 9 лет назад

Boy, those blocks bring back memories!

@davidkuhns8389 9 лет назад

Funny coincidence, I just cut out a set of blocks for my granddaughter. I was planning a box to hold them, but I like the cart idea. My blocks are un-painted, hard maple. They should see multi-generational use, I hope.

@ScrapwoodCity 9 лет назад

beautiful cart!

@joemoskowitz7427 9 лет назад

Steve, I just watched several of your most recent videos (had some catching up to do), and I have to say that I really love your MicroJig spots. They have me literally laughing out loud. Keep up the good work!

@rochestersoaresdelima1195 9 лет назад

Fantastic job. Children will love playing with it. Congratulations.

@norocketsciencebuild5371 6 лет назад

I can't wait to make this for my little boy, he's gonna love it!

@belindamanning9851 6 лет назад

Love it. Have a grandson coming November 2017 and I am already working on the modular truck for his first big boy toy. This will make a great addition. Love your videos

@lindathrall5133 5 лет назад

I had one of those when I was a youngster and I loved playing with the blocks and made some very interesting buildings on my city map

@hasdrubal121 9 лет назад

Great job Steve, you really nailed it :)

@mrgodBG 9 лет назад

Very nice project!

Very cool project. My grandson would love these :)

@TheShavingWoodWorkshop 9 лет назад

Ha, lol the push block is awesome....Great project Steve.

@jimharvey9894 9 лет назад

I enjoy your ideas and videos

@russellspicer 9 лет назад

I am a doit yourself-er and kind of a woodworker... but even if I don't make all the things you make in your videos, I can't help but laugh every time I watch one of your videos. You have a great channel. Don't stop making videos because I look forward to your new videos each week.

@rosscopper3069 9 лет назад

Great project Steve, Thank you for posting the plans, I hope you have a great Thanksgiving.

@AndreaArzensek 9 лет назад

That came out very nice!

@Khether0001 9 лет назад

not usually fan of painting wood, but this one looked AWESOOOOOMEEEE!!!! =P

@lifeisapyramidscheme 7 лет назад

This is fantastic, thanks so much :) Going to make this for my brother's new baby

@woodturningjohn 9 лет назад

Fun little project, I have a box full of blocks from large toy train that did not come out the way I would have liked so this would be a good use of them. Love the colors and I too use sorting method #2.

@cameronfalgout2576 9 лет назад

Good video. I always enjoy them. Thank you!

@WebbedToedWorkbench 9 лет назад

Last year I made an Owl Coin Bank. This year I built a cute tool box for my 5 year old niece. I uploaded my build video to my channel.

@pablomerar6090 4 года назад

That intro though😂😂😂. I love this channel so much.

@amandaknobbe4625 9 лет назад

So cute! The way you put the blocks away like a kid would made me crack up laughing! Spot on impression. I'm so glad I subscribed to your channel.

@jcjatho 9 лет назад

very nice and quite colorful!

@AngieWilliamsDesigns 9 лет назад

Another great project

@HonestDoubter 9 лет назад

That is AWESOME! Thanks Steve.

@CCWSig 9 лет назад

Tisk tisk Steve..... I saw that. Be careful my friend. Nice little project.

@PaulIstoan 9 лет назад

Very nice video! Seems fun to build toys.

@WayneBrownWoodworking 9 лет назад

A great project to make involving the little ones. They can help with the glue up and painting

@gtali15 9 лет назад

You are awesome my friend! Thank you thank you thank you!

@JaySybrandy 9 лет назад

looks cool

@elinaldofranciscodossantos9907 9 лет назад

Parabéns muito criativo bonito obrigado .

@davidkramer6814 9 лет назад

Well that looks simple

@Sebastopolmark 9 лет назад

Nice project Steve. These types of projects almost ALWAYS find a good home and it gives us "novices" some good wood time behind the tools. Have a GREAT Thanksgiving. Can you believe it, some real rain in the North Bay??

@shadowscion 9 лет назад

Man, I remember playing with blocks just like these.

@gregaltenhofel7326 9 лет назад

Well done

@byebyebirdie2368 6 лет назад

I would love to see you try a DIY version of these “Tegu” magnetic wood blocks. They seem straightforward; wood pieces cut open with high power magnets in them then glued back together. I bet it’s more complicated though!

@adamquincey4371 9 лет назад

Excellent... Cheers...

@JakeCarterCarSales Год назад

Hi realy enjoyed this video made me a subscriber sir

@eduardomafra336 9 лет назад

How will Steve 'm from Brazil and I greatly admire your hard work .

@geedubb2005 9 лет назад

thanks StevO!

@riasen3850 8 лет назад

Can you post a detailed list of materials, and equipments used to make this pull-cart?

@justnd2582 9 лет назад

Can you do a video on how to make some of the jigs and tools that you use. Like your miter sled and other things. It would be really helpful and good to know. Thanks

@scoregal949 9 лет назад

I had one of those when I was a kid... I think I still have it

@Luiginicon 9 лет назад

Really cool project, one way to make it more child-safe is to cut away the screws' pointy bit and flatten it instead.

@Mekhanic1 9 лет назад

The paint will look a million times better with some primer. I understand this is just a toy but try it sometime on a project

@fshs1949 3 года назад

Thank you.

@enriquesandoval3521 9 лет назад

Hi Steve. Nw that you get into the topic, I wonder how you could meke a "side bed baby cradle"? do you have some ideas? Thank you. I've been watching your works for two years I think.

@salumigamer3121 9 лет назад

Nice

@petermanley5536 9 лет назад

Thanks it good

@theparisattic1797 9 лет назад

Steve, a table saw and power drill? I would have dovetailed the sides, wheels and blocks left to a natural Danish oil finish. A nice hemp rope to get the parents in a mello mood when putting blocks back in wagon (if you catch my drift). Seriously, an awesome project my grand baby will enjoy next year. I love the MICRO JIG lead ins, they are what let's me know you have a sense of humor and know I'm joking. THANKS

@rootmadeiras8735 9 лет назад

Ola, tudo bem? Gosto de suas ideias, porem gostaria de pedir que voce postasse mais ideias de brinquedos, para que pudessemos fazer para nossos filhos. Abracos

@TomHessVoice 9 лет назад

Steve, great project. However you may want to weave a stick to the pull rope as a safety feature to keep it from tangling around a small child's neck. In fact, i think pull toys like that have such a feature mandated to prevent accidents

@mtusarmy1 9 лет назад

Treat kids like idiots and they will remain idiots.

@Sebastopolmark 9 лет назад

Then they would poke their eye out trying to look at what's inside the pull rope. Let's stick with a bit of common sense and responsibility.

@thesparkyboy5 9 лет назад

You're right chance9050, I was thinking the same thing. A manufacturer could never sell this in a store with that length of rope due to the various laws nowadays. Do I agree with that no. I remember having something very similiar to this as a child with a similiar length of rope. I'm still alive. That's just the reality of the world today.

@Maxid1 9 лет назад

Sebastopolmark I have the same problem with my shotgun. My damn curiosity! I blame my Pikachu muzzle choke.

@roscommon33 9 лет назад

Hi what sort of spray paint you using please . I love your work.

@martinhargreaves7874 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for a great video. I am inspired to build this wooden block push -cart. Help needed. I'm a novice wood worker.. - and not so good on the Internet either. I am seeking advice on how to buy the plans. Any help would be much appreciated.😮

@norxcontacts 9 лет назад

Pine is my favorite wood.

@adamonline45 9 лет назад

Did you use a special paint? And what happened to your impact driver? I just bought the same drill/driver set, I hope it hasn't failed you!

@lennyburt7629 7 лет назад

Did you use non toxic paint? looks nice

@LuukvanA 9 лет назад

Oh man, your intro's, they make me laugh everytime!

@MrLeonard55 9 лет назад

How about some baby moon hubcaps on the wheels? Just turn them on the lathe and paint them silver or chrome. It would become the deluxe model, lol.

@rom3pube 8 месяцев назад

Really like this cart, but link to the plans does not work. Is there another way to get the plans? Thanks!

@DarrealD 9 лет назад

Finally !! :)

@nov51947 9 лет назад

Yeah, Steve, you seemed right at home using the "kid sorting method". LOL

@HonestDoubter 9 лет назад

Steve - how do you cut the arch blocks? Whole saw then cut in half?

@jessebridges4901 9 лет назад

Scroll saw.

@GeorgeTheWoodWorker 9 лет назад

Hi Steve, what happened with plans both imperial and metric measurements ? ;)

@lloydlowery1513 Год назад

How thick are the wheels?

@viperz888 9 лет назад

I wish working with metal was this easy

@becton98 9 лет назад

Anybody know where i can find projects like this one?

@anahiperez1973 9 лет назад

Can u make a easy project for mom and dad ?

@BigFatTonys 9 лет назад

Yeah, that wagon needs taller sides to accommodate the most likely sorting method.

@KSFWG 9 лет назад

Just add sideboards! They could also be used for ramps.

@CologneCarter 9 лет назад

I once had a foster son who insisted and sorted his toys the way they were originally packaged from the age of 2. To be honest, it always creeped my out a bit. But he turned out right, no ocds or so.

@truebluekit 9 лет назад

CologneCarter Isn't he still your foster son, even if he's living on his own now?

@CologneCarter 9 лет назад

truebluekit If a foster child is returned to the family like he was, then the foster parents are out of it. It is measure to prevent raising jealousies and having the child being torn between two sets of parents. English is my second language, yet I hope you get what I mean.

@truebluekit 9 лет назад

CologneCarter I understand what you're saying, though I don't pretend to comprehend the logic. Mind you, I'm not attacking you in any way. It's just not something I could picture myself doing. To each our own, I guess. Thank you for sharing. Have a nice weekend.
