Rocking Cradle
Made this back in 2009 for my God daughter for Christmas when she was 2 years old. Purchased the plans from Rockler. Made out of Hard Maple and finished with 5 coats of Tung Oil Varnish. Hard maple is tough to work with and takes it toll on bits and blades.

Very Nice. Good job on wood selection also. Clean and consistent. Wood selection can be as important as the build itself. Great Job.
Figuring out how to do something you have never done is what makes a good challenge.
I can see many generations treasuring this precious creation.
A definite treasure!
