Denny Knappen Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 I saw this in SWWC Spring 2017 issue #66 and just had to make it. This will be a gift for our 3 year old great grandson. I will have to make another one for our soon to be born great granddaughter. The pattern is by Paul Meisel and I purchased the parts from his website. I used 3/4" Pine and FD Polar #5 blades. There is one coat of sanding sealer and two coats Shellac. Comments welcome. Rob Roy, lawson56, MTCowpoke22 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
