The Pendulum Baby Cradle is Done!

[stolicky]

Here is the project that has been taking most of my free time lately. It was a lot fun but I missed the lathe. Now, back to some pen making!

I attempted to put the link in this post so the pic shows up - let's see if it works.

Nicely done Chris. I have my first grandchild due in three weeks. Can I just borrow this cradle? It would save me a bunch of time.:biggrin:

Beautiful work! Better start on the crib next. They grow so darn fast.

Thanks guys. The due date being 3.5 weeks away really gave me an incentive to get it done. I hope we will get some use out of it and it will last a while. Its our first future pen maker. There are actually more pics of it with some more explanation on my flickr site:

The entire cradle can be assembled and disassembled without any tools.

I have actually been able to finish a few pens the past week or so that were progressing slowly over the past several months. I will post them shortly.
