Built this for a bit of fun, used up some excess turning that I had as the wheels. All I can say is Yabba Dabba Doo.

That's a terrific busyboard!

Seeing the padlock and keys reminded me of an old childhood memory.
My Uncle Johnny (who died at 24 in a car accident) used to have a box full of keys and padlocks - all separated - and we used to spend hours in his bedroom that was never packed up, trying to match them all up.

Never did get to finish it, some keys didn't fit the locks and there were leftover spares at the end.
I always wondered if Uncle Johnny was watching and laughing when we got to the end and they didn't all fit together.

How to entertain kids in the 70's - a box of keys and padlocks! :)

Cheers,
Megsy
