Hello Lathe Ladies, Mitre Mates, and Plywood Pals!
I’ve been tracking my kids’ heights on a wall for several years but I’d like a prettier solution. Something I can screw on the wall and mark their heights on (maybe temporarily and then go back with a wood burner or something). Ideally, sometime that’s two identical adjacent pieces that I can give them if I’m ever lucky enough to be a grandparent.
A straight 7’ board with a cutout for the moulding and burnt or painted 6" increments is the simplest solution, but can y’all think of anything nicer? I would prefer to keep it on a semi visible wall instead of the laundry closet.
Thanks friends.
Looks something like this.
Flat plank against the wall cut in to the silhouette of a tree. We didn’t go for regular height marks- Height marks are burned in to the wood at each measurement date with the measurement written beside it. I attached it to the wall using picture hangers, so we will measure with pen and take it off later to burn it in.
That’s neat, thank you for the explanation and picture.
