Hi, I'm Pekka from Finland. I found your plans at internet and ordered couple of them. For a few years I've been interested in making toys from wood. The big trucks are the thing. Here I modified a little the pulp wood trailer with the road tractor. Your plans have been a great help in building those trucks. Pekka has converted Aschi's truck #149 to an rigid truck. Great work !!

Pat Smith from California: 'Peter, Here are some of the latest batch. I made 12 of them , and only photographed these 3. Felt like taking a picture of all of them together was just showing off. Hoping to make them a tilt cab ,but the one I did wouldn’t stand up to my “toy tester. Decided to cut my losses and make solid cabs. Now back to the bench for the trailers! Enjoy---Pat' Made from Aschi's Workshop Plan #149

Ted McElhaney: Aschi, Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your truck plans. (see attached). I am a 67 year old retired grandfather from Huntington, Indiana (USA) and enjoy making wood projects for kids- especially grandchildren! I used walnut and oak to make the wrecker and pine to make the others. Keep up the good work! Sincerely, Ted

Richard Brown has sent a letter to Aschi's Workshop: I don't remember how I found your plans, but since finding them I've had several students build them as projects. For the most part, the plans provided clear visualization of what needed to be done. Students are required to make a model as part of their class and most choose to one of your plans. Attached are several examples of students work (and one of my own). Here is a slight description for each.
The two semi trucks were built by students and taken to a district competition. The quality of work was good enough that both students qualified for the state competition. The flatbed truck was the first model ever completed in class. The tractor is enlarged 1.5 times. The wheels were created using a method for a different model but with the enlarged size we thought it worked. The top is speckled due to the top being left in the stain room as the plane was painted.
I've had several plans built, but this is the only model. Built by a first year student. The train is my work. I liked the two tone look so I carried it through all three pieces. The engine is modified in that I left the window open. Only three cars due to space restrictions and the need to complete other projects. The green Chevy and the cab over were constructed by a students who needed something to do. All models are build from Aschi's Workshop Plans.
Andrew Drysdale from Sydney has submitted story and photos. William Robertson from Sydney with his Red Fire engine that he helped his grandfather make from scrap Australian Cedar.

The plan is a FREE PLAN from Aschi’s Workshop. Best, Andrew
