69 Fire Truck Project

Grandson wanted a big boy bed, he's two, so I built one, complete with working gumball and L.E.D. tail lights. Wish my 69 was that easy.

Re: 69 Fire Truck Project

I was going to make my oldest something like that when she was 4..... (she's 25 now...) Just thinking about the smile that boy will have on his face is convincing me to start one for my grandson (he's 2)... maybe I'll get this one done! Awesome motivation man!

Re: 69 Fire Truck Project

Great job!! Looks like a dream come true for the little guy.Just a heads up,this may get moved to the alternate tinkering forum.It would fit really well with some of the projects there.I also doubt any of his buddy's will have one,.
