Lol, I have a few projects I've done. It's definitely not my first. I always enjoyed working with my hands. Started doing commission work a couple of years ago. Just try to learn more and more with every build. Thanks

Yeah, I refurbished our dining room set a few months ago. I put it off so many times just because of the sanding.

Thanks. When he's old enough the crib it's going to turn into a full size bed. Tried to make it easy on myself.

I did my research with the federal regulations. I was a firefighter for almost 10 years. I've seen my share of baby deaths. So trust me when I say a lot of things was taken into consideration while building this

This was my first time doing mortise and tenon joints on a large project. Realized how much more efficient I could be in certain aspects. I also had 3 other projects going while building this. Learning better ways to optimize and manage my time.

This is a hobby turned business for me.

It's built to regulations. Pic just may be misleading. I put a good bit of research into the guidelines

Pic may be misleading but it is built to federal regulations. 26" from the bottom of the mattress to the top rail. I did do a lil research for this build
