I've been mildly obsessed with rocking chairs for some time now and would love to start building some of my own designs. I really have many in my sketchbook. Incidentally if you're similarly inclined towards rockers I just happen to run a blog that may interest you. It's mostly aesthetic in nature but a good source of wholesome rocking-chair based entertainment and you can find it here rockstream.
So here's my latest prototype of a very simple rocking stool. It was made out of balsa wood using a scalpel for shaping, 100 grit sandpaper for smoothing and the worlds tiniest awl for boring the post holes.
Here are two more after shots of the chair.
