Topic of the Month – Demo by Jon Stephenson

Turning a piggy bank builds multiple skills
Now that some of his grandchildren are old enough to understand the value of a dollar, Jon decided to make a few piggy banks for Christmas gifts. Starting with a basic piggy bank plan from the internet, Jon fashioned a cute and functional piggy bank with several upgrades; walnut bodies, maple ears, ebony eyes and a curly tail. Making this bank will call on your skills in making lidded boxes, hollowing, fitting and shaping–join us at the February meeting for this interesting demo.

See you all on Saturday!
