Your carpentry skills are great mammab. my niece has one like this but as she has chubby lil thighs, when she rode her "horsey" it was rubbing her thighs red and tender so I made her a "saddle". hers was 10 and 1/2 inches long in the saddle area and 4 inches wide. and almost 1 inch thick. so I made a pad with fabric, warm n natural with some anti skid gripper fabric (by Dritz) on the UNDERSIDE of the saddle, FACING, the wood. so it did not slide and she can get really rocking! it was held together with velcro and I made a little "pillow" for the bum area and sewed it down on all 4 corners. she loves it.
