Designer's Notebook

Rocking Horse

You can build a rocking horse for some classic children's fun. This design features a solid base with a rocking action that mimics a horse running. The shaping of the horse is easy to accomplish, but you can customize it any way you want. Creative Director Chris Fitch and Phil Huber show what it takes to build it.

A small cabinet featured in Woodsmith featured doors with decorative panels that look like leaves. You don't need to be a carver to make them. Dana Myers shows how to do it with a scroll saw.
