A classic rocking horse never goes out of style, and a rocking horse handcrafted by dad or grandpa is even more than a classic. It's a family heirloom, a treasure to be ridden, enjoyed and cherished for generations to come. This handsome and sturdy pony rocker project makes it fun and easy to create your family's next heirloom. The project features limited rocking motion, rounded edges and wooden hand grips and stirrups for safety, while a yarn mane and tail and scrap-leather ears provide jaunty good looks. Full-size traceable patterns and simple construction techniques make the project easy enough for beginners. Simply trace everything onto 1- and 2-by-12 lumber, cut out and sand. Next, assemble the pieces using glue, dowels and screws. Finally, stain, seal or paint as preferred and attach the mane, tail and ears. The completed pony rocker measures 44 inches long by 25 inches tall. About U-Bild plans: U-Bild plans are ideal for woodworkers and do-it-yourselfers of all skill levels.
