    Dreams come true

    Santa made this for my daughter and she loved it.

    The plan came from Plansnow.com and were pretty good. It all started from a 2 x 12 and some 1 x material. I changed a few things like using 2 x material for the rockers instead of 1 x. I also created the saddle and such based on my own design. I hope that this gets passed down for many generations.

    I included a during picture to give a better idea of how it was done.

                    That is very nice workmanship. I am sure it will be enjoyed for many generations to come.

                          Awesome work, and truly a world-class alternative to all that lead-laced stuff from the global market!

                              I've seen the plans and thought about making these for my great-niece and great-nephews. How long did it take you and how old is your daughter?
