Line Mar Match Box Construction 058 - Tetter-Totter

I found a Line Mar Match Box Construction Set from the 1930s, complete and with instructions. The box claimed the set made 100 different toys. I decided to test that claim -- one toy at a time. You can read all the posts for the Line Mar construction project at 100 Toys.

The build was a little tricky. The fiberboard collars couldn't support the weight of the seats. 

On the plus side, the teeter-totter actually worked. At least, it did for short while before one of the arms fell off. But still...
