This is a customer request.  Cut from pine this bank is 8 inches tall x 10 inches long x 4 inches wide.  The bank has been sealed with Tung Oil and then top coated with shellac.

Each plexiglass window is held down by 8 #6 x 1/2" brass screws equally spaced around the outside edge.  Have to predrill pilot holes and then enlarge just the holes in the plastic so that the screws fit easily.
