- While the original intention was to have this build series air on only Tuesday, I have decided that I will air the 7 episodes back to back to allow those of you who are interested and want to build your own, a chance to follow along instead of having to wait 2 weeks between episodes.
So without further adieu, I bring you part 5 of a 7 part series on making the Toys and Joys 1929 Ford Stake Bed Truck build.
I hope this series provides you with enough instruction, to give you the confidence you need to make your own version of this model.
If you haven't, please consider liking and subscribing to the channel. Click the bell and then you won't miss notifications of future episodes of the show. We have a lot of fun here every Tuesday and Friday and I hope that you will consider becoming a part of that.
As always, I want to thank you all for tuning in to the show. I truly appreciate it.

Another awesome episode of Alternative Tuesday, well done.
Glad that you liked it Alonzo. thanks for the kind words and for tuning in to the show.
This is a riveting series, I can't wait to see the result.
I'm glad to hear that you are still enjoying the series Mark. I always worry that they will carry on and I will lose the attention of the audience but it is inevitable that it will be many parts as I am showing all the pieces and how to make the model from start to finish. I hope you will continue to enjoy the rest of the series. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Made this same truck about two years ago. Had a blast working on it.
I'd love to see your version of the truck Barry. If you feel like it, you could send me some pictures of it. Thanks for tuning in to the show this week

I have some nice pictures during the build but I not sure how to send them to you! If you could help me with that I would love to share them.
@@barrylockard1201 You can always send photos (or questions or whatever) to the channel's email address at acutabove_woodworking@hotmail.com
I hope this helps Barry.
Nice work as usual. Love how walnut looks, but my skin hates the dust. But it is worth it once the project is done.
I've heard that people who have nut allergies can react to woods like walnut. I can't imagine having that happen to me as walnut is one of my favourite woods to work with. Thanks for tuning in to the show and for the kind words. I truly appreciate it.
Great stuff Kenny.
Glad that you are still enjoying it Peter. Thanks for tuning in.
Continuing a great job.
Glad that you like it Tom. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Снова отличное видео. Жду пятницы. Изготовление фар очень трудоемкий процесс. Но придумать как всё это сделать - это высший пилотаж! 😎
I am glad that you are enjoying the model series. It truly is a lot of fun and I hope that you will try it one day. Thank you for tuning in and for taking the time to leave the kind words. I truly appreciate it.
Kenny, you still have my interest and I have watched all the videos in their entirety. I have said it before and I will say it again, amazing workmanship. Great job of explaining the process.
Thank you for the kind words Paul. I respect your opinion and your kind words mean a lot to me. Thanks for tuning in this week sir. It's truly appreciate more than you know.
I just completed a TNJ plan myself, wish I had known about your video beforehand, have learned many tips/tricks that would have helped out...taking notes now.
I'm glad that you were able to take something positive away from the show Jeff. I hope that you will be able to apply those techniques or tips to future model builds. Thanks for tuning in and for taking the time to leave your comment. It's appreciated.
Headlights came out great. Another very enjoyable show. Thanks Ken.
You're very welcome Jim. I'm glad that you liked it. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
As someone who has never built a wooden model before, I am loving every minute of this build.
I am really glad that you are enjoying the series Barry. We are in the home stretch now. Almost done. Thanks for tuning in and for taking the time to leave the kind words. It's appreciated.
You make the lathe work look so easy, I’m still absolutely impressed when I see a perfectly round object made on a wood lathe because it’s all in the hand motion. I have no experience with a lathe but I can tell you if I tried to make something round on a lathe, it would be lop sided, squirrelly, and wonky lol. Your fun is our fun too, it is an absolute joy watching this series, and I will be joining you again for yet another ALTERNATIVE TUESDAY! lol have a great weekend
Thanks for the kind words Randy. I hope that you continue to enjoy the series. It's almost done and we are definitely coming to the end of it soon. Thanks for tuning in this week. It's truly appreciated.
I love this video series! I'm gaining confidence faster than I thought! Thanks Kenny!👍
Glad to hear it Kevin. Now you need to take that confidence and put it to good use in the shop. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
@@acutabove_woodworkings update: I just purchased the plans for this truck along with the 108 WS tractor and trailer. Should be in my hands by mid next week! Been juggling time between deep cleaning our house and caring for my mom who recently had some major health issues! Hopefully Ill be done with the cleaning by the time my plans arrive! Can't wait to tackle this truck!
Still with you .Though it took a little time to work out some of the words like 'hood', we call it a bonnet and 'fender'. As I was making it I thought, "What the heck is a fender". When it came to fitting it the light bulb lit up. Of course: mud guards. At this point (to paraphrase
your good self) I have to say, without your excellent and patient explanations I would have been lost half way through day one and for that I offer my wholehearted thanks. Looking forward to next Tuesday. PS. I'm also looking forward to, 'What did Kenny get for Christmas'.
Not so sure there will be a "What did Kenny get for Christmas" show this year. I guess it all depends on what I get. This is the first year that I didn't ask for anything so it may just be a lot of gift cards. LOL. Thanks for tuning in Piet. Glad that you are still enjoying the series.
I'm currently working on a Gatto Plans Backhoe / Loader. The inspiration was your Tractor-trailer with the cement block load. The Toys n Joys backhoe is also nice but the Gatto Plans model has steering as well. Not quite as detailed but the challenge is with the pistons that support the buckets and the outriggers. I used you 1/16th inch router bit idea to make the cross-hatch grill and air filters. I had to adjust the dimensions to 3/16th inches between using my Incra Jig as the 1/8th inch spacing chewed out several chunks of the grid. As you said, innovation is required when things don't work as expected. When finished, I will send some photos. BTW, I'm pretty good at making steering wheels. I might send you some for future projects.
I'd love to see those photos and I look forward to seeing them. The model sounds very interesting. Glad that you were able to take some ideas from my tutorials and use them for your own model building. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
It was pretty cool how you mad the headlights and lenses. That looked pretty tough to me. Great job and content Ken! Take care!
It only looks hard Michael. It's really quite easy and all you need to do is take light passes and take your time and everything will be fine. If it gets ruined, it's only a small amount of wood wasted. Practice, practice, practice. You can make a million headlights from scrap wood. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
I am learning so much from your tutelage. Great smooth style, clear velvety voice... where were you 40 years ago when I needed a real teacher? ha ha I know you "weren't born yet", but the good news is I finally found you and I love this project. You are making it look so nice. How do you settle on what wood for what part? That takes some thinking too or is there a secret? Great job.
You're a funny guy Sam. I'm a child of the 60's and 40 years ago, I was just finishing up high school. But I'll take your comment as a compliment. LOL. As for the woods to choose, there is no secret. It's all about personal preference and what the maker thinks looks good on the model. It's all about colour and strength. Some of these parts can be fragile so I stay away from the softer woods like pine or basswood. But walnut, cherry, poplar, maple, mahogany, ebony etc are all good choices and it all depends on if you want the colours of the model to be light or dark. If you wanted a light coloured truck, you could make the body from maple or poplar. A dark truck? Choose walnut or mahogany. I wanted something in between so I chose cherry. The tires I make from walnut because it is the darkest wood I have at the moment. It's all about what colour your want your model to be and what woods you have to replicate those colours. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in and for the kind words on the series.
perfect
Glad that you liked it. Thanks for tuning in.
Once again, great video and content. 50 seconds into the video, and I already have a question. How did you determine what to “stock” for you wood stock. Not wood types, but sizes.
A wood rack and what is stocked in it, is a very personal preference sort of thing. For mine I prefer to keep plenty of maple, walnut, cherry and poplar. There is also mahogany, oak and some pine. (I know you didn't ask about species, but someone else might be wondering). As for the sizes, I pretty much stick to 8/4 rough cut stock and I stick to 10' lengths, that are cut in half. This gives me the most versatile use from each piece as I can get anywhere from 1/8" thick to 2" thick just by re-sawing and thickness planing. It will also give me any length up to 5' long. If I need longer for a certain project, I purchase that separately, just before making the project. As for the width of the stock, it is determined by the size of my equipment. My jointer is able to flatten an 8" wide piece at the maximum so I try to keep all my stock at 8" or less. Preferably, I like to have it at about 7 1/2" wide. It is strictly governed by what my equipment will handle as their capacity. I hope this helps Scott. Feel free to ask any other questions you might have. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Your work with the lathe is fascinating to watch. I have never used a lathe but am hopeful of getting one early next year - leaning toward a delta, any advise?
I had a full sized lathe for years and I finally had to re-assess my woodworking and realize that I didn't have a need for a full sized lathe and that it was only taking up valuable space in the shop. So I sold it and bought the Delta 46-460 and absolutely love it. It is a great lathe and I have no complaints with it whatsoever. In my opinion Joel, you can't go wrong with the Delta lathe. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in this week sir and for the kind words.
Awesome series. Getting there Kenny. Where did you get that MT2 piece for turning headlights. Great tips as always
This MT was purchase many years ago at Lee Valley. I tried to get you a link but they apparently no longer carry it. You can always purchase bolts like this www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/hardware/fasteners/nuts-and-bolts/40988-hanger-bolts-1-4-20-thread
and mount them in a drill chuck with a MT2. It will provide the same results as the head stock unit that I used in the video. I hope this helps Marcelo. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
@@acutabove_woodworkings Thanks Kenny. Yeah, I should of think myself about hanger bolt in a drill chuck. Cool idea for turning the lights. I also never buy any parts for my model builds.
@@marcelo403polo2 A man after my own heart. I love making all the parts and am not a fan of purchasing anything for these models. That being said, I don't think any less of anyone if they want to purchase certain parts. Not everyone has the equipment or the skill set to make all the parts. Good for you for making them all yourself. Very impressive.
@@acutabove_woodworkings Thank You. I takes longer when you make all parts yourself, but on other hand there is way more fun. Im planning to start working on Freightliner cabover on my Christmas brake. No plans. Hoping to get tilting cabin with detail engine below and all bells and whistles.
