A simple technique allows you to paint a majority of the bed before it is put together. To make assembly of the bed easier, we’ve provided four animations that will help you visualize the steps. Watch the videos for some revved-up assembly instructions. Make the Sides Step 1 On a sheet of 3/4" MDF, lay out one side (A) (Cutting List & Project Diagram) and (Drawing 1, Project Diagram). Draw the straight lines of the side: the rear bumper, front bumper, trunk, rear window, top, windshield, and part of the hood. Step 2 Beginning at the rear bumper, create the radius lines for the curved shapes of the car side (Photo 1). For the large radius, use a quart-size paint can; for the smaller radius, use one of the 2" soffit vents. Step 3 When you get to the hood profile, clamp a 3/16" dowel at the front of the car and flex the dowel until it curves to flow into the flat section of the hood and trace the shape (Photo 2). Step 4 Use a jigsaw to cut the car side to shape. Stay on the waste side of the cut with the saw, about 116" from the layout line (Photo 3). Sand the edges of the car to the layout line. Note: The exact shape is not critical; slight variations are fine—just sand the edge so it’s smooth and flows nicely. Step 5 To shape the sawn edges, a sander and a wood file are the tools of choice. For flat areas and outside curves, use a random-orbit sander with 80-grit sandpaper (Photo 4). Step 6 For the inside curves and tight spaces, use the wood file (Photo 5). Finish all the edges after shaping with 120-grit sandpaper. Step 7 When one side of the car is ready, stack the car side on the next sheet of MDF and trace the outline; remove the finished side and rough cut the second side with a jigsaw on the waste side of the line. Pattern-Rout Step 1 To complete the second side (A), you could jigsaw the part, slightly oversized, and use the sander and wood file to bring it to final shape. But this can be a lot of work, especially when you have multiple parts to make. To make perfect duplicates fast, use a router and a flush trim bit (Photo 6). The original part is used as a pattern. Use this copy procedure--called pattern-routing--to make the duplicate side. Use this technique for other parts, too--the window panels (B), fenders (C), tires (D), and wheels (E). Step 2 Place the pattern side (A) on a pair of sawhorses and stack the rough-cut second side on top. Align the factory edges and clamp the parts together. Insert a flush trim bit in your router with the bearing on the smooth pattern part; run the router along the edge (Photo 7) to make a perfect copy of the pattern. The bearing on the bottom of the bit will follow the template and trim the edge of the rough-cut part to make a perfect copy. Make the Window Panels Step 1 Now place the pattern on a remaining section of MDF (Cutting List & Project Diagram). Slide the bottom edge of the side so it overhangs the MDF panel by 2" (Photo 8). Trace the side; to make the window panel (B), set aside the pattern, and rough-cut the part. Step 2 Layout the window openings (Drawing 2, Project Diagram) and use the 2" soffit vents to draw the radius in the corners of the windows (Photo 9). Step 3 To cut the windows, drill a 3?8" hole into the openings, insert the jigsaw blade through the hole, and cut the shape (Photo 10). Step 4 Use a wood file to clean up the window openings, and then restack the window panel (B) on the side panel (A) with the 2" bottom offset (Drawing 1, Project Diagram). Clamp the parts and pattern-rout the window panel, the bearing of the router bit will follow the side to make a perfect copy for the window panel. Step 5 To make a duplicate window panel for the opposite side of the car, place the completed window panel on the remaining sheet of MDF--align the edges, trace the part, remove the template, and cut the window panel to shape using a jig saw, gutting on the waste side of the line. Step 6 Restack the window panels and clamp. Pattern-rout to complete the second window panel. Construct the Fenders and Wheels Step 1 Lay out the shape of the first fender (C) to use as a template (Drawing 3, Project Diagram). Jigsaw the part and smooth the edges with a sander and wood file. Use this template to trace, jigsaw, and trim the remaining three fenders. Step 2 Use a couple of screws to hold the narrow parts together while pattern-routing the parts (Photo 11 and 12). The screw holes in the template can be filled later. Step 3 Lay out the shape of the tire (D) (Drawing 4, Project Diagram), then cut the inside opening by drilling an access hole and cutting the opening with a jigsaw (Photo 13). Cut the outside shape of the tire, now use a wood file to shape the inside opening of the tire and sand the tire smooth. Step 4 Use the first tire as a template to pattern-rout the remaining tires. Step 5 Cut the four wheels (E) (Drawing 5, Project Diagram) from the MDF, lay out the shape and the bolt-hole pattern. Drill the 1/4" bolt holes and jigsaw the circle, leaving it rough. A Geometry Lesson There are six bolt holes plus the center hole in each wheel. The six holes form a hexagon. To lay out this hexagon, draw a circle with a 2 1/2" radius around the centerpoint of the wheel. Then move the point of the compass to any point on the drawn circle and draw an arc to intersect the circle (Photo 14). Move the compass to this intersection and repeat. When all six points are marked, the hexagon--or 6-point bolt pattern--is complete. Step 6 Place a wheel on each tire and attach with screws (Photo 15). Step 7 Now pattern-rout each wheel and tire (Photo 16) to get a nice flush edge. Step 8 Number the parts, and then disassemble the wheels and tires. Place a 3?8" roundover bit in your router and smooth the edges of the sides, window panels, fenders, wheels, and tires where shown (Drawings 1-5, Project Diagram). Assemble the Side Step 1 Before you paint the side parts, some assembly is needed. Attach the parts with screws, and then remove the parts. After you've painted the components, you can reassemble without damaging the paint. The screws will go right back in all of the existing holes for a pit-stop-fast final assembly. Step 2 Cut 2"×4" material for the base cleats (F), divider cleats (G), seat cleats (H), and exhaust (I) (Cutting List & Diagram). Step 3 Lay out the cleats on the inside face of the side (A) (Drawing 1, Project Diagram) and secure with double-faced tape (Photo 17).

    CARPENTRY INTRODUCTION Wood is an important engineering material that is extensively used in the buildings and industries. ‘Timber’ is another name for wood, which is obtained from exogeneous trees. “Wood Working” means processing of wood by hand and machines for making articles of different shapes and sizes. It is further divided into two groups; (1) Carpentry (2) Pattern making. Carpentry is the common term used with any class of work with wood. Pattern making deals with the type and construction of wooden patterns. Steel Rule Four fold rule Flexible tape Blade Try square Stock List of Tools I. Marking and Measuring tools 1. Pencil 9.
