Very nice. Not sure where you live Dave, but here in AZ our local critters are scorpions...that being said it is recommended that you put each leg of the crib in a CLEAN glass jar as critters can't climb up glass :sneaky:

Just some FYI for ya!

Great job Bruddah Dave! Hmmmm... why is there an extra screw lying under the crib? ??? :0 ;)





Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha! :D :p :thumbs:

Aloha,

Wade
 
Looks good Dave, a project like that would have my wife and I seeing a mediator. :D :p

And don't forget the bassinette (do people still use those?). ;)


Great job Dave!!!!! :thumbs:
 
Thanks everyone!

We live in Illinois, so scorpions shouldn't be a problem here.
Check out my picture page to see the dresser that I just re-did the top for. It's not a chest of drawers, but it will do.
Yes, people still use bassinette's - my mom got us one for our shower.

I did notice that the gaits move pretty stiffly - probably either polyurethane in the rod holes, or the holes aren't perfectly lined up. In either case, I'll bore them out just a teeny bit and that should clear things up.

Thanks again.
Dave ;)
 
Dave,

Great job! I am sure Carrie is very proud of you. Don't forget to go down to the local hardware store and buy those nice felt pads for the bottom of the legs. We don't want to leave any scrathes in that nice new floor ;)

This was my first major project - believe it or not. :p

Dave ;)
 
It does not look like it will hold humidity very well. Are you going to line it with Spanish Cedar. :D
 
LOL, I did not mean to thread jack.

It sure has been a long time since we had one of those in the house. I remember the days when they are a little older and they grab the bars and shake. We had to do a few repairs on ours. I would recomend that you keep some wood putty handy. :0

He is going to line it with huggies... they REALLY hold Humidity well!!!!



I would say they hold about 99-100%!
Also, you only need to change them about once a week, as they say they are good for up to 14#! :D

Oh, nice work Dave, even though the picture looks to be over the size limit! :lookup:
