child's glider rocker plans

Does anyone know where I can find plans for a child's glider rocker. I have seen the one that Woodcraft carries but do not care for it; to me it is too gaudy. My granddaughter’s 1st birthday is coming up soon and I would like to make her a nice rocker.

Re: child's glider rocker plans

I haven't seen any plans, but also I haven't really looked. Do you think that you could use an adult size rocker plan and just cut the dimention in half, making it half size? Just thinking out loud

I am sure that someone will chime in soon with some worthwhile thoughts.

Oh Yea....WELCOME!!!!!!! glad to have you here!

Dave, Thanks for the idea, I am going to persevere and try to hang on until I can find something close to what I am looking for. If I can't then maybe reducing an adult size chair might be a good way to go.

Re: child's glider rocker plans

How about this one?



It's from Woodcraft. Might get you started, anyway...
