In this video I am building the greatest piece of furniture I’ve ever built, the Cece Rocking Chair. This chair was designed, built, and named for my new niece, Cecelia. It is made with Beech hardwood, and love. We also created long form video plans that can be purchased on our website, so go check that out if you want to build one of these for yourself, or any of our other projects. This build utilized plenty of interesting techniques including template routing, part tapering, domino connecting, and a lot of rocking good times.

    Many different designs for each type of project are also included. For example, there are hundreds of designs kzread.infoUgkxb2mhCug-GkCWrq69Ce2I0nM0D4QpxAqu for outdoor buildings, from small sheds all the way up to a complete stable. Choose whatever type of shed or storage house is right for you. Pick from fancy ones or more utilitarian designs.

Nicely designed and nicely produced. Have a great afternoon!

    Shaun (and others), i'm still kind of a beginner, so i just have to say that the process you demonstrate around 9:35 (and shortly before and after) was SO helpful! i think i first saw you do this in an old video on your original channel. anyway, i recently built my first bed frame and used this method to taper each of the four posts. it was easy, gave me perfectly repeated cuts, and felt safe! thanks for teaching me! and great job on this rocker -- as a father of two, i know just how important this kind of furniture is during those first months.
