How to Draw a Pallet Jack
Draw a pallet jack in 11 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the pump block.
Step 1: The pump block
Right of the middle, a little low, draw a box with soft corners a bit taller than it is wide.
Tip A pallet jack is just a block, 2 long forks and a tall handle.
Step 2: The round face
In the block draw a BIG circle nearly as wide as the block.
Step 3: Eyes and smile
In the circle draw 2 round eyes, each with a dot and a shine, and a wide smile.
Step 4: The long fork
From low on the block draw a long flat fork running left, with a rounded tip.
Tip A pallet jack has 2 forks side by side, so from the side you see just one.
Step 5: Wheels and ground
Add ground. Draw a wheel with a dot under the block, and one on a post under the fork tip.
Step 6: The tall handle
From the top of the block draw a long fat handle slanting up right, with an oval loop on top.
Tip The handle is tall and slanted back: you pump it to lift the forks.
Step 7: The pallet
Over the fork draw a pallet: a thick top board, 3 square blocks with gaps, and a bottom board.
Tip The fork slides through the pallet, so it shows in the gaps and at the tip.
Step 8: A box on top
On the pallet draw a big box. Draw 2 close tape lines across its middle and a small label.
Step 9: Pink cheeks, red jack
Go over your lines. Colour 2 pink cheeks, then colour the block, fork, post, handle and grip red.
Tip Leave the face and the eyes white.
Step 10: Wood pallet, brown box
Colour the pallet wood brown and the box brown, leaving the tape lines and the label showing.
Step 11: Grey dot, black wheels
Colour the wheel dot grey, then colour both wheels black around it. Your pallet jack is ready to roll!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a pallet jack, drawn by you.
