Another great addition to Davetown, Dave. I like the metal roof on this and I like the idea that it is stuffed full of Dave Dollars!

Thanks! As an insulator collector, naturally the poles caught my eye.

The telephone poles are made from wooden Q-tips. I tapered them a little with sandpaper. I drilled holes in the cross arms and glued wire in them.Thick super glue on the wire looks sort of like an insulator.

Here's some pictures of my bank. The building is made from high density foam.










Here's the link to all the pictures: http://public.fotki.com/daveinthehat/davetown/davetown-bank/

I put a slideshow on YouTube of the entire build: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_nXdkbCvCY&feature=plcp
