I made this cradle for my first grand daughter out of oak . I should have made 2- they had identical twins! (Thus woodworking has taken a back burner to my now first love- the babies!)

This is actually my first wood working project completed back in April '05. Built from plans I received from Knotty Plans. Finish sanded to 220 with Minwax Golden Pecan. Lessons Learned: NEVER pull a full sheet of plywood off the rack by yourself (I know, common sense). The original...
