    I made this bank for my mother to donate to the youth group at her church. The bank is 10 1/4 inches long x 7 1/2 inches tall x 3 1/4 thick. I normally do not paint my banks with the exception of the Fox Bank, Elephant Bank and now the Whale Bank. I used water based acrylic paint and then top coated it with shellac. DW

    Very nicely done. The only reason things look easy is practice.. plenty of practice. We all have made our share of designer firewood. There is about 1000 years or more total experience on this board. Most are quite willing to answer questions and what not. You are doing great. Portraits can be some of the most difficult to do yours are great. Thanks for sharing them with us. DW

    Neat wheel... now who stole the wheelbarrow?????? Perhaps you could make a cart that uses those wheels and use it as a planter perhaps? DW

    Kevin looks great my friend and it always seems like that is the way it happens. Like for me everytime I think I am done with bank orders I get several more. This severely limits the time that I can play Oh well Keep up the great work. Thanks for sharing these with us. DW

    I am working on a clamp / press for making bowls and banks and boxes. I had some left over water well pipe so I made a stand. The idea is to make a press that would be somewhat like one of those 20 ton bearing presses at Harbor Freight, but who needs 20 ton of pressure for wood hehe. So I drilled holes in the well pipe ( point E ) and put a removable cross bar between the pipes on both sides. I was able to get on the cheap some cut off stair tread ( point C ) that was being tossed at Home Depot. I planed both pieces flat and marked one upper and one lower. I purchased 2 5/8 in all thread that were 48 inches long and cut them in half. (Point A ). I drilled 1 inch holes in the four corners of the stair tread pieces and bolted the all thread to it. I then sleeved the all thread with some 1 inch pvc piping. The whole upper section is raised and lowered with an old ( 40 years ) scissor jack that I had laying around not using. This is still very much a work in progress however it does show promise. DW

    Seriously Dick I think that it would be a major hit. You might find yourself swamped with requests for all the teams,,, especially for things like homecoming etc. I like the idea a lot. DW

    print up the sections that were smaller than these and continue. What I see looks great as usual. Nothing says that the thing has to be one certain size does it? Just resize the pattern Just a thought from a master designer firewood maker. DW
