Either cradle depicted by these plans would be a perfect piece to add to your Early American or Colonial American collection. The plan details how to make a cradle using either spindle or panel sides and both feature a locking key so that swinging can be disabled. No special hardware needed. Size: 20" x 39" x 30" high. These cradles are intermediate level projects, but the motivated beginner can have success in making these heirlooms as well with patience.
