I have a toy paddle wheel steamboat for you today. The boat is around 14" long. It is cut mostly from 1/4" thick wood but does call for 1/2" and 3/4" for the haul sections. You will also need a 3/4" diameter wood dowel for the smokestacks, and cargo, and a 1/4" dowel for the axle.
This is not intended to be used in water but you may want to use waterproof glue just in case. I know that when I was eight years old I would float it as soon as I could fill the sink. 😀 I believe it is a bit top-heavy to float.
There is a parts diagram included in the pattern but study the images and you should see how it goes together.
More from Adam Savages Workshop
A couple of weeks ago I shared a video where Adam interviewed the owner of Knew Concepts. Here is a follow-up video where they discuss cutting metal for jewelry. This is not using a scroll saw but a hand fret saw. The interesting part of the discussion is when they talk about blades. When they discuss Niqua blades we typically know them as Flying Dutchman blades here in the US. The Swiss blades that he says are Grobet are what we know as Pegas blades.
He goes on to talk about how scroll saw blades work. It is an interesting conversation especially of you have questions about blades.
