Wooden Rocking Horse

[Shep]

Was finally able to take a good picture of this rocking horse today after we opened presents. It's my own design made out of beech wood with walnut plugs. The walnut was from some hand-me-down scraps from my wife's late grandpa. Finished it with 3 coats of wipe on poly (70-80%).



My two year old loves it.

I can see why a 2 year old would love it. Nice job.

That's a cool rocker. Kids go crazy for them. That one looks great. Don't forget to sign and date it. It may be around for a while.

Nice design and execution, I know some kids that would love these! Great job!

Very nice job, Justin. It'll get years of use.

Nicely done!! I like the darker walnut plugs against the lighter colored beech wood. I can see a little guy (or gal) getting a kick out of the rocking horse for sure.

That is a great project that will be cherished for years to come. Ditto Cabinetman's advice on signing that one.

Looks great, will give much good service.

Great horse. Head held high and proud.

I date what I make with a new penny. Drill a shallow hole, in an obscure place, with a 3/4" forstner, add a dab of epoxy. 200 years from now they will marvel at the fine stuff we could make with our primitive tools.

Yes Justin, the kids'll love that ol' horse!

And as others posted, sign-date that piece of art. Thanks for sharing with us.

Need a pic of the little cow-poke on his new pony.
