    Default Band saw money boxes.

    One of the things I started doing for craft fairs in England was money boxes on the band saw. The alphabet is a great thing to do and sold very well. I think I finished up doing most of the letters including a special which was for your likkle island down there It/they were for a wedding present for a Chris and Kylie. They either slid together



    Or stand separately, well, you never know



    With a bit of pyro they can be very personal



    I drill a 1/4" hole in the back before the assembly and turn a bung to fit, but apart from that they are bog standard boxes. The hole size was the size of a 50 pence bit, but like the value I think it's smaller now? Don't know, haven't been over there for almost 5 years now.



    I like this one too



    My ambition is to grow old disgracefully. So far my ywife recons that I'm doing quite well! John.
