We have one grandchild approaching two years old, and two more due
by mid summer. Their cribs are taken care of. I'd like to build a
rocking chair. Actually, maybe three or four.

So, waddaya got to share?

Gee, if you are starting from no place in particular then I'd like to write
a word or two about the rocking chair back. The back of the rocker should
be easy on the human back, those round dowel-type spokes are pretty tough
on the back if you stay in the rocker a while.
