Time for another cradle - ®smpr_fi_mac® - 12-29-2018 This time, it's for us. The missus is due July 4, and she wants a moon cradle. I've spent some time searching the web and have found some basic plans for the idea. Seems super simple, and since she wants to paint it silvery, I can build it from poplar. Has anybody else here built one, and if so, have any advice that I haven't already read? https://www.google.com/search?safe=off&client=ms-android-hms-tmobile-us&ei=4u0nXLbhM8745gKThrqgAg&q=moon+cradle+plans&oq=moon+cradle+plans&gs_l=mobile-gws-wiz-serp.3..0j0i22i30l3j33i299.1083.2043..2809...0.0..0.144.287.0j2......0....1.........0i71j0i67j46i67.AYJlyxZayZA RE: Time for another cradle - museumguy - 12-29-2018 Congrats !!! Never heard of a Moon Cradle, looks rather interesting. Keep us updated on the build, should be a good one. Oh, sorry, no real advice otherwise. RE: Time for another cradle - Stwood_ - 12-29-2018 Well, those are different. ![]() Wow, $779.49 on Etsy. Looks to be made from a wooden wire roll. RE: Time for another cradle - Redman - 12-30-2018 ![]() If you need any wire spools you can probably get all you want in Houston. Last 6 months there have been almost as many spools rolling down the freeway as cars. At least 6 spools of various sizes. RE: Time for another cradle - DaveR1 - 12-30-2018 It does look simple. Evidently the plan is to make them from MDF and pallet wood. I think you're smart to choose yellow poplar instead. Plans such as they are seem to be freely available. RE: Time for another cradle - ®smpr_fi_mac® - 12-30-2018 I'll build ours with ply and poplar; I like ply's ability to hold screws better than MDF. Like you guys said, it does look super simple.
