Designing and Making Rocking Horses by Margaret Spencer

Rocking Horses conjure up a world of fields and dreams, and have enchanted children for generations. Their secrets are not beyond a woodworker of average ability. Making and Designing Rocking Horses shows you how to turn your workshop into a stable, and delight the younger generation with the most precious and rewarding of gifts. Topics include: plans and step-by-step instructions for eight horses ranging from traditional medium standard to the push-me pull-me rocking horse; carving and design: making plinths and unicoms; wood and tools required and finally tips from the author to give your horse a professional finish.

Margaret Spencer was taught how to use tools by her father and learnt how to make patterns by her mother. She set up a business making, restoring and supplying accessories for rocking horses. Margaret has made some five hundred horses over the past thirty years - now retired she leaves her own daughter to run the business.
