Changing Table for First Granddaughter
Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Changing Table for First GranddaughterDaughter asked me to build a changing table for her after the one she bought from Amazon broke as they tried to assemble it. Unfortunately, she asked this of me on August 1st and my first granddaughter was due Sep 29th. So, I spent two months working anywhere from 4 (after work) to 10 hours (weekends) a day on this. Sadly, my granddaughter arrived two weeks, 1 Oct, before I could deliver it but everyone is happy with it.With the exception of the obvious hinge or slide, the only screws that can be found on this thing hold the front shelves and the back scroll work bracket in place. Otherwise, there are 28 mortise and tenon joints (bought a mortiser for them) plus four sets of hand cut dovetails and half lap joinery in this project. I put a LED light strip with a dimmer behind the scroll work so the daughter doesn't have to use the overhead light at night. And I had to use unicorns for the drawer liners as no one anywhere sells fairy paper. But, they are both magical so it works (hahaha)The hamper and pad are from the Amazon piece of junk that broke
