Materials

various sizes of 3/4" pine (I used scraps I already had)

6" x 8" piece of 1/2" hardwood (I used a piece of ash I already had). I chose hardwood for the more intricate sides and the pieces holding up the roof, so they would be more resilient)

2 - 1/4" x 3 1/2" hex bolt (bucket arms)

1 - 1/4" x 3" hex bolt (front pivot on hay wagon)

6 - 1/4" x 1 1/2" hex screws (for wheel axles, front and hay wagon)

2 - 1/4" x 2 1/2" hex screws (rear wheels)

green, yellow, black, and silver spray paint

clear spray paint top coat

Tools

Shaper Origin

Band saw

Table saw

Drill

Sandpaper

Instructions

I am sorry I have not put together a step-by-step set of instructions. If I can get to it one day, I will try to do so. Hopefully the pictures will be enough to show you how the pieces fit together. Most are just assembled with either Titebond II or Clear Gorilla glue. The wheels are held on with washers and hex bolts to resemble the hub caps. There are two hex bolts with washers to hold the bucket on, using nuts with nylon inserts to prevent the nuts from working loose.
