Bruce Prisuta writes, "Wanted to show off my first wood working project. for my first grandchild. Used nothing more than a radial arm saw, scroll saw, drill, drill press, hand files and sandpaper. I made it out of red oak. Have $140.00 in lumber. A few minor changes: Rockers are 1-1/2" and overhang on canopy is 1-1/2" greater. I also doweled every board I glued together for the sides and ends. I just love it. Sure my son and daughter-in-law will, too. One more coat of antique oil finish and I'm gonna take the rest of the day to sit back and admire it."

Great work, Bruce. Thanks.
