    Default Help needed

    I can probably complete this task myself, but collective minds are best for solving problems.
    I have been asked by a nursing home (to volunteer) to make a couple of changing tables for life sized dolls for a couple of the residents with dimentia to use.
    Has anyone out there got plans that you have used (to save me the trouble of measuring things up)? I was thinking of "fold up", light weight, but safe enough that won't fall over and take the resident with it.

    You can buy a shaped changing pad. Get the dimensions of one of those and make the table to suit. That's what I did, many years ago. Make a comfortable height to work at with a shelf underneath to hold all the changing paraphernalia.
    Those were the droids I was looking for.

    G'Day Crunchie,
    These maybe of some assistance.
    One is a toy design from an old Wood Mag; the other two full size..
    Cheers crowie

    Thanks, Crowie. Those dimensions are helpful.
    Thanks also, NCArcher. The nursing homedon't want too many parts, so they suggested a flat top that they can just put a towel on. Certainly, if the baby was real, I'd get an off-the-shelf changing pad.
