Combining a classic rocking toy with every child's natural fascination with dinosaurs, this do-it-yourself rocking dinosaur proves that there's nothing old-fashioned about prehistoric fun. The project is irresistible to most kids-just wait until your own little paleontologist "discovers" him under the Christmas tree. Kids of all ages love the dinosaur's friendly face, "bone" rockers, comfy seat and easy-to-use handholds. The project's sturdy design, safe and gentle rocking motion and heirloom quality will appeal to the grown-ups in the family. Adults will also appreciate that it's inexpensive to build. The dinosaur requires just a small quantity of standard pine lumber, dowels, glue and screws, paint and a wooden ball for the eyes. Construction is simple. Just trace the parts onto wood, cut out, assemble and paint. We used "lizard green," but colors and patterns are limited only by the builder's imagination. The completed dinosaur measures 45 inches long by 36 inches tall by 12 inches wide. About U-Bild plans: U-Bild plans are ideal for woodworkers and do-it-yourselfers of all skill levels. Unique "trace, saw and assemble" designs feature simple-to-follow patterns (like sewing patterns) that produce professional-looking results.
