    Default Rocking Horse Making off video!

    Hi everyone,

    I few weeks ago I made a lovely rocking horse for my Nephew!
    I made a relaxed short making off video of it. I hope you like it and perhaps get some inspiration from it.



    The best greetings from the Netherlands,

    Dennis

    I've never seen one like this one. It is very different but I really like it. Good work.

    Thanks Crowie, it was a very fun project to make and to see my nephew with it makes me smile.
    I also sold one to a women who work with children and se ordered a "mother" version of it.
    So now I am making a bigger version. I think it will be very nice to see them together.

    Best regards,

    Dennis

    Great video! Your workshop looks like a fabulous place to work. Love the bench and bench accessories you used.
    You have a very lucky nephew, he will thank you every time he goes for a ride.

    Very nice indeed and a different outlook to the normal rocking horse yet still has the shape making it recognisable as a horse, Unlike the traditional one I made a few years ago.

    My forstthought when watching the video was that the centre cut outs could have been used to make a minature horse waste not and all that

    Today I finished a large rocking horse and I had to think about your comment. But it was impossible because of the shape.
    Thanks for your comment!

    I will upload a video in a few days with both the little one and big rocking horse. It as very nice seeing them together

    It is just a short try out preview video. But at the end you can see both rocking horses together)
