Years ago I made a hobby horse for my grandson. You may have seen one on the web, a Clydesdale. It came out very nice and I chose to use pine because it was easy to find and work with. It proved to be a good choice and now is 4 years old and has taken all the kids can offer. It still works and looks great. Now I have a granddaughter that wants one of her very own, but one for a girl. I have chosen this horse to build. It suggests using Ash for the main body. Ash is not readily available and I am up for suggestions for another wood. I want a wood easy to work with that is also a light colored wood. I am thinking of using white paint on the wood, immediately wiping it off to leave the pores filled with white paint, yet allow the wood grain to come through. Any thoughts?
