I had a friend come to my shop and make his first rocker, see pictures. Made of Argentine Mesquite with glass, burled Maple inlay.
Any woodworker can do it, so get my ‘Free’ text and surprise a family member. See kappelusa.com for info.
I have another one coming soon. I custom made it for a customer.

Andy, “If I can do it, so can you”
Send me an email and I will send you my “Free” text from which other woodworkers have been successful in making the Maloof style rocker. It is easy, just step by step.
