    A maple and cherry rocking horse

    (Is this the appropriate place to post finished projects?) I've built this rocking horse a few times now and I still haven't gotten tired of it -- plus the kids that have them still love them! It's from a design in a book called The Family Handyman: Toys, Games, and Furniture (book details...

    Pony-size rocking horse

    I finally finished the rocking horse I started when my granddaughter was born two years ago. She will have to be lifted up for awhile but she still seems to like it - as seen in the last photo. I made the horse out of 12/4 poplar, rough it out with a chain saw and finished with chisels and a...

    Rockin' Horse Help?

    I'm sure that several of you have done rocking horses. I would like to do one for a "young friend" who is 2 and a live wire!! I need something fairly simple (that means without too much complicated joinery!) that I might get done by Christmas. I'm only able to spend a couple hours at a time...

    Shaving Horse Workshop

    I'm pretty sure I started a thread about a shaving horse workshop but I can't find it now, did a search and Gofor's thread asking about plans came up but no others. So, I think there were two people interested in building shaving horses? What date did we agree on? Is anybody still...

    Shaving Horse

    I made one based on the plans I posted about a month or so ago. I lengthened it some and changed a couple wood dimensions, but, having yet to use one, will wait on other mods until I see what I need. Its fairly easy to make and can easily be disassembled. Also, not too heavy.: My version: Go

    First rocking horse, seventeenth-century style

    I've finally completed my first rocking horse, for grandson Nathan, based on plans for a seventeenth-century slab-sided style: The plans called for 3/8" ply, but I'd have to splice together the 3/8" 24" x 30" piece of baltic-birch I bought from Woodcraft, to get 36" of length for the...

    Thin-panel joinery for rocking horse?

    I have decided to make a toddler's rocking horse, from the plans in Anthony Dew's "The Rocking-Horse Maker." The rockers are 35-1/2 inch, tip to tip, and the rocker seat is about 12 inches off the floor. The material called for is 3/8-inch birch ply, and I was able to get 30 x 24 inch...
