Pair of Kids' Stools
G'day mates,
Thought I share something I made that get used a lot. A pair of kids' stools I made for my kids to wear and remove their shoes. In fact, my wife and I used them quite often ourselves.
Made from left over radiata pine. Dovetail constructions with hand tools.
Difference between the stools are the lower stretchers as you can see in the pictures. One has the stretchers by the arch, while the other has the stretchers on the side.
I think I stained it Walnut but did not turn out too well.
Cheers
Gunn

Lucky kids!

I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.
Regards, Woodwould.

G'day mates,
Thanks for the kind words. They were made about 2 years ago and still going strong.
I rather the kids wear them out than being left gathering dust.
Cheers
Gunn

Turned out great. If they get the use ours did, then they will go on for many years yet.
