The Cradle

[SwampDonkey]

Nice cradle. Seems well built to, as ten kids can testify to that. ;D

Very fine work!  I have learned, as apparently you have, that there is great satisfaction in building things for grandkids.  I have built bookshelves and a train table for my grandsons.

Very nice!! Thanks for posting the pics.

You guys wouldn't hppen to have email-able plans to these cradles would you?

[Mooseherder]

Are you making two?

[Magicman]

No plans here.  Matter of fact, I do not remember there ever being any.

[SawyerBrown]

Can't find any either. Seems like it was out of a woodworking mag, but don't have it any more

[hackberry jake]

I guess I will just wing it then. Thanks fellas

[SawyerBrown]

Wait wait wait!  I found it!  (Obviously I need a better filing system!)  Hackberry, it probably won't copy very well electronically, if you'll PM me an address I'll just mail it to you.

Jake,

Don't put your cradle in a tree.


Rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop
When the wind blows, the cradle will rock
When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall
And down will come baby, cradle and all

Jake,

Don't put your cradle in a tree.

That's what this forum is all about -- great advice from knowledgeable experts  ...   ;D

I was trying to tell him........These modern babies eschew tree tops.

Jake, Do you have a "need " for a cradle?

[hackberry jake]

Jake, Do you have a "need " for a cradle?

I should have one around June.  ;D

[Lud]

Then  you might get a cradle done by then..........after all , you've already done the hard work! ;D

Mighty fine.  Congratulations. 

[WDH]

Congrats, Jake.

[SawyerBrown]

Congrats!!  Better get cutting if you're going to get that cradle done by June. I was finishing mine after Megan was already born and ready to come home.  (Boy that's a whole 'nuther thread there, bringing your first child home ... ).  I always say, "Never put off until tomorrow what you can put off until the next day!"

We used a Tyson chicken box.  ;D  Just in case it isn't done in time.  Improvise, Overcome,  Adapt. 8) 8) 8)
