I used to make several of these ducks every year .
No power tools were used except for a drill.
Shapes were cut with a coping saw, rounded with a block planer and sanded by hand.
Each duck has a different painting on it's wings. When it's pulled its head moves side to side, the wings move up and down, and it also CLICKS!
Each have been signed and dated

Pick-Up Truck
I had originally purchased plans for this pickup, but ended up throwing them away after discovering that all the measurements were wrong, and that it wasn't even what was shown on the package. So I went with a tiny picture as a guide, and attempted to replicate it.
I made this truck with maple, with the exception of the floor and the wheel well trimmings (which are made of birch ply). Stained the body with teak stain, and left the rest natural.
