Description

This wooden digger truck kit lets you build your own model front loader, with plastic syringe hydraulics fitted along the arm to work the big front scoop. Everything comes flat: pre-cut plywood sheets, an instruction booklet, a sanding board, a tube of glue and the components the build needs, from the syringes and wooden dowels to the small fittings and four chunky rubber-tyred wheels. Once fully built, the truck measures about 32cm long, 9cm wide and 14cm tall, a satisfying size that sits comfortably on a desk or shelf.

We like it as a hands-on project for anyone who loves diggers, building things or working out how machines move. Working through the instruction booklet, the model takes shape piece by piece, from the chassis and four wheels to the cab with its open window, the slatted engine housing and the jointed loader arm. The syringe hydraulics are the clever part, turning a push and a pull into the movement of the arm and scoop, so it is as good for seeing how hydraulic power works as it is for the fun of the build. Finished, it makes a proud model for a bedroom shelf, a desk or a study corner.

The truck is mainly wood and plywood, with plastic syringes and fittings, rubber tyres, metal parts and adhesive making up the rest, and it is left in a natural pale wood finish. Use the sanding board to smooth any rough edges before the pieces go together. Once built, dust it with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from water and damp, as you would any plywood model. It arrives in a printed cardboard box, which makes it an easy present to wrap and a tidy one to give.

It is mainly wooden, made from plywood and wood, with PP and PVC plastic parts, rubber tyres, some metal components and adhesive to hold it together.
