Step 3: Attach Template to Wood
Drill the template to your piece of wood. Drill opposite
holes so the template doesn’t move easily as you don’t
want it to slip on the bandsaw or the router.
Step 4: Cut the Car Body
Roughly cut around the template as close as possible
on the band saw, or scroll saw depending on which you
have. You don’t want to get too close and accidentally
damage your template so be careful! The template is
the most important piece.
Step 5: Route the Car Body
Set your router up so that you can clean up the piece using the template
height as a guide. Set up correctly, you’ll be able to route around the template
in no time.
Step 6: Drill the Windows and Axle Holes
Drill out the unscrewed holes, creating one axle hole
and one window, using the hole in the template as
your guide. Remove one of the screws holding the
template to the new car and drill out that hole, then
remove the final screw and drill out your last hole.
