Wooden Whale Bank
« on: March 04, 2015, 01:06:18 am »
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 - do you have any details on the plug at the bottom? Is there anything to snug it closed or is it simply a twist in place?

Ray the plugs ears ride up a ramp to a flat resting spot and that locks the plug into place other than that it is a simple 1/4 twist and it locks in place.
