More crib production!

Jim continues to produce more fine craftsmanship on the cribs for Emmy, Ashlynne Rose, and a yet to be determined occupant...


Every piece is cut to size, and then hand planed.




After planing with the "coarse" setting, you plane it again with the fine setting. Then there is little sanding needed. Here you can see the different sizes of shavings.






Which results in a pile of shavings by the end of the afternoon:




And here is the result of a day's work:

These are beautiful... not to be picky - but it is Ashlynn (no e) Rose :-)

You are amazing! And so is Jim! Much love to you - we'll keep you posted!

Neat!!! Thank you for calling the third the "Yet to be determined occupant." It most likely will be occupied in about 4 years, so Dad will have plenty of time to finish it.
