[QUOTE="Jeff Drum, post: 1618134, member: 6444"]Also, that design of rocking chair always creeps me out a bit. The possibility of a child sitting on the chair and putting a finger into the rocking mechanism... I wouldn't have one in my house if I had small children. There were several versions of this style of rocking mechanism, and several patents.
