My second attempt at a rocker. A friend had a similar rocking airplane (store-bought) for his daughter and when I saw it, I said, “I can build that!” So I got some pics and rough dimensions and got to work. The thickness of boards and a few details of layout changed but it’s pretty similar to the store-bought one. Only his was painted instead.

Yes, the kids love it. I was worried that my oldest would think her rocking horse was lame after the next child got this, but they each like theirs best but always share as well.
