Title: Baby Bassinet
Post by: Spacecase544 on October 03, 2015, 03:26:23 PM: So I am really behind on this project, since we brought my son home from the hospital yesterday and I haven't finished his bassinet yet, but I will show project pictures here of the solid cherry bassinet that I am building for him.

Post by: Spacecase544 on October 23, 2015, 11:00:41 AM: Well after a rough night Wednesday, I was able to salvage some terrible initial cutting work on my part into some decent uprights. Only took about 5 hours with the drill press mounted drum sander!

Gotta love those times you spend twice the time repairing your own screwups...
