" Welcome to the rocking horse maker online workshop. "

These pictures are put on here to give you a clue as to what I’m rambling about on the

This first collection of pictures show the rebuild of a Sportiboy. It came into the workshop all in pieces. Some pieces were broken and some were missing. It also had woodworm and the stand was missing.
