Indy Racer


  • This is another favorite of my nephews and neighbors.
  • This is made out of: Mahogany, Maple, Red Oak, Birch dowel and scrap Cherry
  • 4 coats of MinWax Polycrylic and a 20 minute buffing to really bring out the wood tones.

This was one of the most popular car models that I have ever made. The use of contrasting wood to make the parts that should be dark eliminated the need to apply any paint.

I have started on four more for my grandsons. They have yet to have a keepsake from me and I want them to have something that they can always remember me by.
