Ron Altier Posted March 1, 2017 Report Posted March 1, 2017 I had some Oak scrap and decided to make one of these walking toys. It wasn't easy, my first attempt would only walk a couple of flips, because I missed on the dimensions a bit. This effort worked ok. I used quarter 20 set screws for the weights. I also drilled the holes for it on the lathe, instead of the way the video showed. I've had trouble in the past displaying videos.........here goes stick.MOV Dadio and Gerald 2 Quote
Gerald Posted March 2, 2017 Report Posted March 2, 2017 Congrats Ron . Was going to try again today but just did not get to it. Quote
Ron Altier Posted March 2, 2017 Author Report Posted March 2, 2017 The guy in the video said that he was surprised why this thing didn't go viral and woodworkers would be selling them everywhere. After a few times and seeing how much force it took, the thrill was over. I don't think it will keep kids interested any longer than a few minutes. HandyDan and Dadio 2 Quote
