Had a customer that wanted a Dinosaur Bank for her 5 year old. This is what I came up with.
Made from 5 layers of cabinet grade plywood, shaped and sanded then sealed with tung oil and then stained with a watered down acrylic paint to allow the grain to show through. Finished with shellac. The bank is ~14 inches tall and ~ 11 1/2 inches long and 3 3/4 inches wide.
