Old horse

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.
