Rocking chair

[harvey b davison]

Got asked to make a rocking chair for my 7 yo grandson. I have never made a chair before so it was something new.

Its made out of 40x40 pine with ply base (paint finish). 

Im not happy with the legs, as they are too narrow, however overall im happy with it, and it gives me something to work on.

How much do you all think these would sell for ???

Any feed back, good or bad or constructive much appreciated.

Thankyou.

Nice. Could you make the legs and struts with turned wood? Would take longer, but it'd look pretty.

Fair play you did a great job of that.  I just have to say the plywood let’s it down.  If you struggle to get a single wide board there is no harm in jointing several which judging by your skill level would have been easy.

 

I sell lots of timber to people to make tables, but very few people tackle chairs.  You should be proud.
