Rocker Toy for Kids

This is a great way to show off not only the first time i could hit that "I made it!" button, but also to tip my hat in the direction of btking. Thank you for sharing "Kids Rocker Toy"!

I work as a CNC operator on a factory, therefor this is partly made on a industial CNC machine. No pictures because: Safety.

If you dont have a CNC: Follow instructions from btking.

Step 1: Materials.

I used 2 pieces of 12mm MDF board to the sides, and melamin MDF as the bridge parts.

2x -- 1100x500x12mm MDF

9x -- 500x120x16mm Melamin MDF

I have no drawings or jigs to show off, but the .MPR file i made, can be downloadet here.

I rounded all the edges with a R6 router bit, except the pocket holes.

Step 2: Dry Try. :)

This step is just to show how it would look without any paint.

Remember dust mask if you are using a router indoor! :)

Step 3: Paint.

Raw MDF sucks to paint..! Every raw edge is primed twice, and the sides are primed once, and painted white twice.

Bridge parts was painted green/yellowish, some colour from a previous project.

I did not paint the melamin because it is super fun to slide down from as it is. Also it is easy, and satisfying to scrape paint off with a "ziehklinge". ( Ziehklinge = Scraper i guess. )

Step 4: Play.

My daughter used it as a tool while she learned to stand up.

Then as a cradle to play around in, and then as a counter for selling puzzle bricks.... and stuff...

Oh. And it is made out of 100% scrap materials.

Disclamer: If your child falls down from this awesome toy, i am not to blame. :D
