Its nice Al,think I would have put your grandsons name on the truck door or down the trailer side.Either way you did a nice job on this neat project.Children never can get enough toys and its great being a grandfather to keep them in new ones.

Again, thanks to everyone who commented. I appreciate the support.

Forrest I thought of making a logo "Shea's Trucking Inc. but I have a heck of a time doing accurate lettering and before I got to making a transfer pattern, I had put the poly on the cab. I tried a transfer but it smeared really bad. Maybe I can cut a small stencil. I got a couple years before this has to be delivered so I guess there is no rush and that is a good idea. Thanks.

Al

Great little semi ya got there Al! Your grandchild is going to love it I'm sure... One of the best times of my life was playing with little cars and trucks with my grandson! He still has some of those little cars but won't admit to playing with them now! Ha!!! Enjoy your grandkids while you can, they'll grow to adults before you know it!!! Thanks for sharing your carving with us!
