- Uprights for Football, and a bat and ball for Baseball. This design could also be modified for soccer, rugby, etc.
Barn and Grain Elevator -

- They can drive their little grain trucks through the elevator, and put their cows and horses in the barn.
A couple Castles -

- I made the pink one first, and then thought that I need to make a fortress also. But I don't really like how the grey looks. The next one will be dark blue with either a white or yellow seat.
And some Mountains and Forest Chairs -

Going by size charts I found online these are sized for kids 3-6 years old. But it'd be really easy to make them bigger.
I figured that kid's have good imaginations, and will be used as both chairs and not dollhouses, but action figure fortresses.
They're bolted together with furniture bolts and t-nuts. I made sure to angle the backs the same as a kitchen or office chair. Without the angle they'd look cheap and homemade.
A couple of them need the paint touched up, barn doors should be smaller, and I should change the logo size on the football ones. But overall I think they turned out pretty good for a first batch of prototypes.
I made them so they can be flat packed and easily shipped. So hopefully I might be able to make and sell some of these online.
And yes I know about copyright infringement and all that. So selling sports ones will be difficult.

I was going to reply that it's better to use the scroll saw for most of it. Like with the barn one, the hayloft and windows - Using a flush router bit I'd have to plow through a lot of material.
But if I were to remove the bulk of it with a hole saw, then a router bit would take out the rest easily. Even cutting large chunks off the sides, it be faster to quickly cut off the bulk and then go back over with the router, than it was to slowly cut along the line. I'd still have to clean up some of the corners after. But a flush router would be far quicker. A hell of a lot more sawdust, but a lot quicker.
I guess I was only thinking about making one or two and not 20 or 30. But now that you've got me thinking about it, it seems so obvious. Thanks.
Well, I guess I'm going to price out some flush trim bits.
