I originally posted the following under the Woodshop category but it was suggested that I repost here due to BABY BLOCKS DO NOT HAVE TO BE MADE OUT OF WOOD and others might want to participate:
My niece is having a baby in July. Ultrasound says, boy. She recalls her childhood and the fun she had playing with WOODEN BLOCKS.
Go figure.
Anyway, she has asked me to make her a set of wooden blocks for her baby. I told her I would be honored.
I then thought it might be fun to challenge some of you creative types to offer your talents to the task.
In exchange for any and all who provide a single block, or a series of blocks, I will offer you one of the wooden rings I make. You can choose from my current inventory or I can make a custom ring with your size, thickness, and wood choice. These make great homemade unique presents.
I only ask the following:
1.Each block be no smaller than 1.5 inch cube
2.No glued on items that might eventually come off
3.No sharp points
4.Either NO finish, OR is OK to use that delicious tasting SALAD BOWL finish.
Goal is to have the set ready to give her early/mid August.
THANKS
