rjR Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 (edited) I am a little late on this one. It was made 36+ years ago now for my oldest grandson's 1st birthday. Neighbor had given me the pattern. Made from purchased pine. Cut on one of the old tin-Dremels, that I had bought used! Strained the saw- cutting the rockers as a pair -- I remember a lot of sanding and filing away to get it even close to useable. The picture is after a factory rebuild in the 90's sometime. It had sat outside through a couple of CA rainy winters because of space for storage issues at the time. I now build much better rocking toys. Second picture is alpaca that i made about 2 years ago. I do have much better tools now and the difference shows on close examination. I might even be a little more skilled at cutting also.

rjR Posted December 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 (edited) Not sure about the pictures working, If they did not get where you can see them, please contact me, Thanks. Sorry these 2 had not worked somehow; probably "pilot error"!

Scrappile Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 With the teeth, short front legs, I think that could be a rocking Raptor. Kids would love that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjR Posted December 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 (edited) Trying again- for some reason, probably "pilot error" I am not getting the pictures to work. The pictures that did come up are the Alpaca, and the T-Rex, not the horse I was trying to show.
