A Vietnamese carpenter’s YouTube channel, Woodworking Art, is taking the international online community by storm with a series of videos showcasing the crafting of exquisite wooden truck models. From the Bugatti Chiron supercar to powerful pickup trucks like the Ford F150 Raptor and Ford Everest Biturbo 4WD, all are vividly recreated by the artist’s skillful hands.
From Bugatti Chiron to Audi Q7: A Journey of Masterful Crafting
The Vietnamese artisan’s wooden truck models are crafted meticulously, down to the smallest detail, from the chassis and doors to the wheels. Every tiny part, such as the radiator grille, logo, and headlights, is carved with incredible precision and care. Most recently, the Audi Q7 2021 SUV was featured on Carscoops, a well-known American automotive news website, on July 20th, attracting the attention of car enthusiasts worldwide.

Carscoops described the process of creating the Audi Q7 wooden truck model as starting with sketching and cutting thick planks of wood into the vehicle’s frame. Although it lacks an interior, all the window doors can slide back and forth, up and down manually, creating a uniquely creative product. Incredibly, the carpenter primarily uses a hammer and chisel to shape the models, instead of modern machinery.
International Media’s Admiration
Not only Carscoops, but Topspeed, another famous US-based automotive and motorcycle website, also praised the Vietnamese carpenter’s ability to craft wooden truck models, calling it “superb.” Over the past 6 months, the Woodworking Art YouTube channel has shared 11 videos crafting wooden car models. On average, each video has over 5 million views, with the Toyota Land Cruiser V8 crafting video exceeding 53 million views. This demonstrates the strong appeal of these works of art to the international community.

The fact that the carpenter only uses simple tools such as a hammer and chisel to create these exquisite works further affirms his talent. Topspeed also expressed admiration for the ability to realistically recreate details of the models, from the wheels and tires to the function of opening and closing the doors.
