Of course, with no real woodworking tools, and no skills even if I had the tools, that is not going to happen.
In fact, I am only using a Swedish survival knife. And while pine is not as tough as oak, it isn't exactly balsa wood either!
In other words, I am making the world's ugliest pinewood derby car. Porbably the first of many I will make over the years. |
Get yourself a Dremel tool. A small kit is about $40 and it has everything you need.
