Ahh� the takes me back. It really is such a kid thing to do � playing with a boat in a dirty rain puddle. And now, you can give your little one that same joy. Before making any cuts, you need to drill the hole out for the rubber band to through. After, drilling the hole through, cut out the rear space, and cut the front at 45 degree angles. This, is so that you avoid getting any paint in this area. Sand all corner down, then you can then paint the the boat bottom and block.
Do not paint the bottom of the block. These boats were painted with some enamel paint purchased at Hobby Lobby. However, I know that many of you are going to want a paint that you know is non-toxic.
After the paint dries, glue the block unpainted side to the cabin unpainted space. Clamp in place and allow to drive thoroughly. Then, add glue and slip the two notches together. I recommend shaping the ends of the paddle wheel before glueing them in place. Let dry and then paint. The paddle wheel should fit together snuggly and be flush with each side.
You can probably make the slot cut with an utility knife, because the wood is so thin. Work slowly and carefully so that you do not over do it. Make small adjustments until the two pieces fit the way that you want. To wrap attach the rubber band, insert the ends through the holes. The takes each end and loop it back around the end of the boat. The rubber band should be small enough to create a firm, but not over tight stretch.
Insert the paddle wheel in between the rubber band so that the bands rest on opposite sides of the paddle wheel. Wind it up and let it go!
