Building Farm Toys

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find information on how to build custom scaled down farm toys?

Google things such as "wood crafts", "toy plans," etc. That should bring up hundreds of websites.

do you get the toy farmer magazine? My father inlaw has been featured in it a time or two and I have customized a couple but never made one from scratch.I haven't been to a toy show in years but they have lots of parts and stuff.

My dad built a lot, I could ask him for you.
Take my stripes and take my medals
Take my cross and these dog tags, too
Put 'em in a package and stain it with your tears
Send it up to Pennsylvania Avenue

Well, I asked him, but he wasn't much help. He said he took measurements of the real machinary and scaled it down. Sorry, that I couldn't be much help. :frowns:
