The Pinewood Derby

In April Isaiah had his Pinewood Derby race with Cub Scouts.

Here is Isaiah's car unassembled but cut and carved and sanded and sanded again. This is the underside where weights will be added in. The four wheels lay around the car body.

He picked the design himself and had some help with the power tool cuts.

Before this it was just a block of wood.

Special wheel treatment for fast speed (within Cub Scout rules of course).

Isaiah and Kirk working on the Pinewood Derby Car in the garage.

The race is on. Isaiah's car is on the left without paint on it. No time for that this year...


And Isaiah wins the race! His car here was in the center (he is the Scout on the left).

He enjoyed winning every race his car was in and walked home with a blue ribbon, Dad was happy too!
