I started making a crib for my son, who was born 10/14. My wife asked me to build it when she was 8 weeks from her due date, so I have made decent progress considering the short notice and a busy work schedule. It is poplar and I plan on using a dark (walnut) finish. Thanks for looking, and thank you GordonMT for use of your mortiser!

Here are the sides during a dry fit...

Coming along very nicely.

My Daughter reminded me last night that I have only 7-8 more weeks left to finish a crib for her second. Guess I should get started on that.

Looks good to me :icon_thum

Will you be doing something to the top of the posts (round over - padding - ? )
Don't want the little guy banging his head on a sharp corner!

Lookin' good and you are most of the way there! Just make sure you let the finish cure before plopping that baby in it!
