    Finishing knockdown crib

    I'm almost finished constructing a knockdown crib for my new granddaughter.
    I need to know how you all would recommend finishing two sides of the pieces of this project at once (if possible and they both show).
    Thanks for the help.

    When I built my daughter's crib, I hacked together an A-frame from 2x material. I put screw eyes into the bottoms of the crib feet and then hung the panels upside down on the frame. I was then able to spray all the sides in one pass without having to wait for one side to dry.

    You could do the same thing if you're wiping on a finish, too.


    This is what I was talking about.

      +1. Hanging is the way to go.
