This little piggy-bank is cut from three sections and glued up. The plastic windows are also cut on the scroll saw from .050 inch thick Plaskolite. You can find sheets of the plastic at most hardware stores for around $3 a sheet. Instructions for cutting the windows are included in the pattern.
Note: I modified the pattern after I cut the demo to remove the ear piece from the center section. This will give separation of the ears and should look a little better.

Think Safety
Remember to keep the safety of yourself and others in your work shop in your thoughts at all times. Always wear eye and ear protection. Follow all the manufactures warnings that came with your power tools. If I demonstrate something on this web site that you don't feel is safe, don't do it. Your safety is your responsibility. Fingers are handy things, try to keep all of them.
