my wife is having our first child. when she told me I know it was a good project to do my self. to build a crib that is. so I got some 4x4 a sheep of plywood , and some 1x4 and started to work. it is super sturdy. the base is framed up like a wall with some scrap 2x4. with some ply wood on top. then I have it attached to the 4x4. with the ply wood to cover it up. I also ripped down some 1x4 for the bars on the crib and to make the top and bottom. finally we took out a torch. so to burn all the wood ,and finished it off.
