Creating A Pinewood Derby Car.

It was Pinewood Derby time for Griffin's Cub Scout Pack so he received his Pinewood Derby Car kit.

It was a block of wood.

This was Griffin's first experience in building a Pinewood Derby car.


Good thing he has a very talented father and together they could build it together.

Mike did the cutting on the saw.


Griffin did the sanding with a little help from Daddy.


Then it was time to seal it ...


Then paint it ...


The design was totally his own.

He painted it yellow and with a black stripe like Bumblebee the Transformer.

Then he put colorful "tattoo" markings all over it ...

The number he chose is 338 when you flip it over it reads BEE.


Mike and Griffin had a great time creating his first Pinewood Derby car together.

What a great way for dad and son to spend some time. I love that Griffin painted it similiar to Bumblebee and used number 338.
