Michele, you are sounding technical with the dovetail joins.

My Dad was a carpenter - made some gorgeous rocking horses from scratch - I will post a photo of the one he made for DS when he was 2yrs old.Late DH was builder too. I appreciate those sort of things. Your DH is such a craftman too - that tear drop caravan is excellent. It's a dying art. My dad made everything - our beds, all our furniture.
Geoff also made rocking horses for a few years Michele - no mean feat from a wheelchair and being a butcher not a carpenter. He made 6 large & 4 small ones and it used to take him months to finish one. It finally became too much for him and he retired from the shed. Will see if I can find some photos to take a snap of. The one with the red frame was an old one he renovated for a friend of his, it had bits missing and was in really bad condition.
