Another coat of oil, then a wax and she'll be done. Then I have to pack
both cradle and change table and ship them to Melbourne. It'd be easier
to bring the kid here but the mother doesn't think like that.

The only changes I made to the Cherrytree plan was the stretchers are
supposed to be tapered. I did them that way and didn't like it.
Everything else in the job is curved why not them? So I put a curve on
'em. Actually eight curves. The 'hardware kit' that is an optional
extra to the plan comes with these dinky little screw plugs which sit
proud of the surface like little mushrooms. I didn't like them either
so I turned a dowel to the exact size and sliced it on the bandsaw than
sanded whatever stood proud back flush.


The cradle looks very graceful. It will look even better with the little
one in it. I trust the mother and family will appreciate it better than the
other experience related here recently.
