Line Mar Match Box Construction 022 Wind Wheel

022 - Wind Wheel

I found a Line Mar Match Box Construction Set from the 1930s, complete and with instructions. The box claimed the set made 100 different toys. I decided to test that claim -- one toy at a time. You can read all the posts for the Line Mar construction project at 100 Toys.

022 Wind Wheel

This week we're focusing on the center of the three toys pictured at right. As I explained in the last post, separating the three would involve more Photoshop time than I was willing to put in. I think it's easy enough to see which pictured toy the assembled one resembles.

The wind wheel was basically the same as the 021 Stamper. The difference being the steel box (which now had windmill blades). Same construction, same problem. Even though I had some practice, getting the wooden collar centered between the two dowels was only marginally easier than before.
