Rocking Horse
Dec 01, 2009
A couple of years ago I became re-aquainted with wookworking. I bought a lathe to start making bowls. When my oldest daughter told me she was pregnant, I wanted to make something for her children to have that was made by their Grandpa, so I made a rocking horse. When my second daughter became pregnant, I made this rocking horse. I have two more rocking horses to make for my two youngest daughters.
This rocking horse is made with walnut, maple and padauk.

What a beautiful Rocking Horse, it is the best looking one I've seen; you must be very proud of your work and I'm sure the children will absolutely love them.
I am interested in finding plans for this beautiful rocking horse. Can you help me?
I built this from a plan from Wood Magazine around spring 1997. Woodcraft has the plans for sale now.

Do you recall if the screws for the legs are perpendicular to the outside surface of the leg or the horse? This part of the plans was confusing to me.
Great finishing touch and nice craftsmanship.
Dude, its just brilliant. Great finishing.

"Wow, It's amazing." I just love this rocking horse design.
