I’ve seen a couple of these come up lately, so I figured I would post mine. My first child is due in November, I decided to build a crib as a fun way to tell my family the big news. It’s built out of a single piece of 12/4 black walnut, with quite mild figure and gorgeous color. I designed it on sketch up first to figure out all the proportions and ensure it meets the official safety standards. It’s all mortise and tenon joinery, the sides come off the front and back for moving. The slats are hard maple between two stretchers of walnut, these are mounted to the front and back with a series of holes threaded for 1/4-20 bolts to give multiple height positions. The finish is Rubio monocoat, because I figure it might get chewed on a bit... enjoy
