Toy troubles

If the "Toy Team" create any more toys and models the Kincumber Mens Shed will be looking like Santa's Workshop before Christmas this year.

The "wee" houses are easy to knock together and paint up but we are not sure that the market research has been done on the viability of wooden toys for young folk in this day of high tech and high gloss products.

There have been production line difficulties in the "Road Train" toys as standards have not been rigorously applied in the design and cut out of the couplings, the height of the bogies or the size of the wheels.

Never fear though the team led by Jack Nixon, Len Johnston, Frank Nicholson and all the toy crew are working through the problems and getting this process back on track .... pretty soon now KMS will be looking for ISO 9000 accreditation .... well maybe not!

At least there will be toys for The Shed to donate for gift hampers to be distributed at Christmas this year.
