How to make a regular chair into a rocking chair.
These two rails are then shaped to match the curve of the rails.

Flip the chair over.
One for the right and one for the left.
As a general guideline the front and back ends of the rails should be approximately 1 1 2 to 2 inches above the floor when they are at full rest.
Simply place the legs of the chair into the groove of the beechwood skis which are about.
