July 6, 2011 I can't believe it's been a year and a half and I never updated this page. Well, the short story is I have a grandaughter named Khloe and she is 18 months old already. I added some pictures of the completed crib, and the daybed (she's already using the daybed).
November 9, 2009 I'm going to be a grandpa in December and my daughter Kelly asked me if I would make a crib. How could I refuse? I am using plans for a convertible crib that would become a daybed, and then a full size bed as my granddaughter gets older. Kelly wants it to be painted white to match other furniture in the nursery, so I chose to make it out of ash. It is moving along quite well and I expect to be done later this week and start painting the following week. Here are some pictures of the progress so far. I started with 1/8th scale model to show Kelly and give her something to look at while I went and did my magic. After gluing the slats to the top and bottom rails for the headboard and end pieces I clamped the assemblies together to get the final dimensions for the gate. Here's some random photos taken while building the crib parts. Follow this link to see a video of me routing the edges of the slats.
