SEGMENTED CASH

I wanted to use new uncirculated bills for this but my bank manager tells me that they can no longer order them that way.

The idea was to wrap 1/4" plywood with bills so that the segments added up to a whole bill.

===

I numbered each piece because getting them in the correct order was paramount.

Then I built a little box around the pieces.

The back has the alignment also.

I've almost run out of space in my sample box.

I just screwed a piece from that latest work to the inside lip.

Here is part of the write-up I used to describe this piece.

===

Made in May 2024 I kind of think this will be one of my last pieces. The concept was valid but my execution could have been better. I blame having to use warped lumber I found on the side of the road but the real reason is that I’ve lost my keen eye for detail. I like the piece but I’m not crazy about it.

Pierced nipples make me cringe.

I'm thinking that horse just learned never to do that again. Also, the horse in the foreground is like "WTF?!"

Is it just a costume or strength augmentation?

When I first returned home from my military stint in Europe my mother asked if I would mind sitting down for lunch with her black maid sitting at the table. I assured her it was okay. Then when I sat down the black maid got up and left the table saying, "I ain't sitting next to no hippie!"

^^C5^^

I look at the ceiling light fixture in my bedroom and think of how the previous homeowner's wife looked at that same light fixture when she was getting nailed in a missionary position.

^^C6^^

My wife and I have settled into eating the same thing on the same day of the week. Like Wednesday is seafood day, Saturday is pizza day, etc.

^^C7^^

I think that's a great idea.

^^C8^^

^^C9^^

I don't mind that another site posted my meme and I even understand why they got rid of my Folio Olio signature block but why would they delete the little pointers from the captions?
