Nothing a chisel and a mallet won't fix.

One Possible Layout

Only Pops knows how to wield that chisel like they did in the old days.  That's right, no need for those new fangled CNC machines.  All ya needed was a saw, sharp chisel and a mallet and you could make just about anything Grandma needed.

This project is a nod to the old ways of building a timber home or making a rocking horse.  You know the time before anyone ever thought of a CNC machine or new what a 1/8" ballnose end mill was.  These old school tools are still important to have in the shop just in case technology fails you... and that never happens... right?
