[Woodworking] 2015 Hammer time! - Ban Hammer Auction

[DAB]

It is time for the 2015 Vette Barn Ban Hammer auction, proceeds to benefit the NCM.

Since no other suggestions were posted in the Teaser thread, I'll go with the consensus and auction it off.

It is made out of pine, with a walnut wedge to secure the handle to the head, weighs 4.5 pounds, is 19-3/4" tall, 11" wide, 3-3/8" deep. Finished with polyurethane. Art work as shown above.

Since there is a evening and weekend crowd (yeah, I understand some peeps have to work during the day, bummer), I'll run this until midnight, MDT on Wednesday, April 29, 2015.

high bidder takes it, or can direct to whom I should send it, once proof of donation to the NCM is provided (like by a letter from the NCM thanking you for your generous donation). I'll cover shipping.

Winning, or owning this Ban Hammer does not confer any actual banning powers, you'll have to negotiate that with a Mod who can grant such powers.

But if you get mad at your computer, it will destroy it with much violence. :smash:

I got no room to properly display it in the "clubroom", and do not want to relegate it to a corner on the floor in the shop. Nice job Doug, but I'll have to pass.
