Pretty Piggy

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Pretty PiggyThis piggy bank is my second (first – https://www.lumberjocks.com/projects/408182). Their is some great figure in the front top area that I hope you can see in first photo. It is made from walnut with a maple band and front legs. Design inspiration was Hampshire pigs, that are black with a white band and front legs. The band has 32 segments. In retrospect I think fewer segments would have looked better. The bank is 7” long and 4” in diameter with plastic eyes from Hobby Lobby, ears or leather scrap and tail of black pipe cleaner. The band hides the access to the $ – threaded joint. Finish is my favorite walnut oil buffed out with Beall system.This little pig is staying home in my office!
