    I would climb right in if the horses were livelier! Nice job.

    Well done, Dennis...as usual. Did you end up going with the basket weave material, or?

    I have a set of the Wooden Memories plans for a Conestoga wagon and the Oxen team as well. The plans are scaled to the typical rocking horse size. If I ever find the time to make the wagon it will be my second, the first was a hay wagon I made many years ago.

    Nice job on the wagon Dennis, lots of fun at any scale.

    Very nice Dennis. A big regret I have is not talking with my grandma about her trip by covered wagon from Wyoming to NW Washington. She was preteen at the time.
