3 Tone Combination Wood U.S. Postal Bank
Dimensions -- 7 inches tall, 4 1/2 inches deep and 4 inches wide
This bank is definitely a custom design. It is made of three different kinds of wood. The front, top and bottom is made of a wonderful Black Walnut, the sides are Sycamore and the back is of Cedar.
There is labor intensive work done on the finish. I achieve this finish through different sanding processes from 60 grit sanding to 600 grit sanding. I then steel wool the grain to achieve a super slick feel to the grain and sheen to the wood. Finish - Hand Rub with oil and urethane. Edges are rounded on the side and top with a little bevel to the front.
The construction of the boxes themselves is rabbit joint and glued.
They are antique in nature - U.S. Postal Service Door taken out of service and is roughly 40 - 50 years old. The door is a #1 Corban P85 key lock; combination K, O - lock box # 4423.
