   • Sew the front and back panels between the sides.

   • Attach the roof to the top edge of the structure.

   • Reinforce the inside corners with extra yarn or small rectangles of plastic canvas if desired.

   • Stuff the body firmly with polyfill or stuff around a block of foam to help retain the rectangular shape.

2. Attach wheels at each corner base, ensuring symmetry.

3. Add window panels, headlights, and sirens in correct position.

4. Sew on ladder structure to one side of the body.
