Heirloom Crib

Project by gSpin posted 468 days ago 540 views 5 times favorited 9 comments Add to Favorites Watch

So this was my first big project. I estimate it was well over 150 hours from start to finish (seemed like half of that was sanding). The crib is composed of 140 pieces ranging from 1 ½” to 50”. I purchased the mattress spring and gate hardware from Rockler (My Candy Store). The crib is a little on the heavy side, but once broken down very easy to handle.

The crib is made of maple with cherry accents and finished with Danish Oil.

A fine job – I made one as well – and for me I will not be completely satisfied until it is put to use for the first time – cant’ wait – I bet you can’t either – look forward to posts of your future projects – tomas

Very nice. You have a crib that you can give to your grand-children to use for their kids.

Great look, awesome work, it’s a shame they don’t stay small longer so it can be enjoyed longer….
