Hi Jeff,

I built mine out of a 2x6 I think, a 2x8 will work too. It's about 5' long so an 8' length overall will be all that's needed, ie: cheap.

Play around with the rocker, start out with a little rocker and go up, should be able to balance with a bit of difficulty, but shouldn't be impossible. The 1 1/2" rocker sounds right.

Oh yeah I just put mine together with long drywall screws until I had the rocker where I wanted it then glued it and put the drywall screws back in to clamp it.

Bill H.
