HELP - Son wants to make a 50 Cal Bullet for a Derby Car

My Webelos II son wants to make, with his father's help on the big tools, a 50 Cal bullet as his derby car. Does anyone have any ideas how to do this and what would be the best tools for them to use? :scratching:

Thanks in advance for the help.

Re: How NOT to run a Space Derby

As someone that has run Cubmobile, Pinewood, Space and Regatta Derbies every year, I will say that the Space Derby is my least favorite to run for the Scouts. Now, before someone jumps on me with both feet, I didn't say I didn't like it, I simply said it was my LEAST FAVORITE. I find that it is the ...

Display Stand for Boats

Hello, Has anyone made a display stand for the Regatta Boats ... for multiple boats? Our Webelos have made a 5 shelf display stand and are making a multi Space derby stand on Wednesday.

Re: Tropies and medals??

BTW. Crown doesn't show the Regatta insert on their page any more (no one seems to know why :D )

I called them to ask and they still have it, so if you are looking for Regatta medals (you can do the insert for trophies too) you just need to call them and they can do them over the phone.

Re: Seat

We did something similiar for our Tiger Cubs last year. The seat was made out of thick Fiber Board, and because of its shape, people thought it was an ironing board on the back. It fully covered their heads and we made a pattern with a thin piece of ply and covered it with padding and got a red, whi...

Re: T-shirts and stickers

Are you still selling the T-Shirts? If so, I am interested in getting some kids and adult ones if possible.

You can reach me at krjpy@comcast.net.

Thanks!

Re: Tropies and medals??

I too found an Actual Regatta Medal at Crown Awards today, but they don't show any trophies with the insert for the Regatta. I didn't see anything at Dinn, but I may have missed it.

Thanks for the reply ... if I run across anything else, I will post. Thanks again.

Tropies and medals??

Does anyone have suggestions on a good place to order Trophies and Medals for the Raingutter Regatta?? I can find plenty of places that do the pinewood derby and even a few that do the space derby, but nothing really for the Regatta. We are a pack of 60-70 kids and usually 40-50 show for the regatta...
