Re: A Sturdy Foot Stool

I built this for my grandson, who was barely two at the time, and he loved it.
He uses it every night to stand and brush his teeth at the bathroom sink. He drags it around the house to any area where he needs to get up higher.
I didn't really know if a child that age would think this was a something useful, but he took to it immediately, and recognized right away that this was HIS.
Now he has a little sister, so I guess I'll be starting another one soon. When I do I need to make two, as the step stool we have is not nearly as nice.
Mine is of quartersawn white oak, with bubinga wedges in the tennons.
The proportions are very even, and the lines flow beautifully.
