BUILDER BOARDS, Construction plans, Community service and the World's Largest Set: CONSTRUCTION PLAN

BUILDER BOARDS, CONSTRUCTION PLANS, Community Service, and the 'World's Largest Set' (new-4th edition) contains all the details a woodworker needs to construct a full set of parts for this remarkable imagination machine. Wide-eyed children put BUILDER BOARDS together, using them to erect structures large enough to play in. Builder Boards 4th edition has an expanded chapter about scouts and students constructing Builder Boards as a community service project and a chapter about taking the World's Largest Set to community events.

Builder Boards by Jack McKee was originally published in 1997. The new, 2025 4th edition, contains information gleaned from 30 years of woodworking experience combined with stories about using Builder Boards with the children. It includes new roof-board and gable-end designs and covers the use of recycled and leftover materials to construct Builder Boards. There are easy-to-use layout plans, tips on how to take advantage of a shaper and the discussion of a computer controlled router to cut notches. Also included are new sanding and finishing recommendations. New color pictures give you a sense of joy children feel while turning their ideas into a structure that stands on its own. Finally, a new chapter about taking the 'World's Largest Set' out to community events like farmers markets and neighborhood parties was a eye opener for the author.
