    I'm starting a new project soon. I'm making a 1:12 scale boutique. I made this sweet little cash register for that project.
    Dimensions:
    1.5" diameter circle cut in 4 pieces, plus one extra piece
    base: two rectangles with rounded corners, 1.25" x 1 3/16"
    total height: 1 7/8" tall
    1.25" wide
    1 3/16" deep
    link to the printable money:
    www.etsy.com/listing/13778931...
    2 oz bottle of Diamond Glaze
    amzn.to/3zmMLR1
    8 oz bottle of Diamond Glaze
    amzn.to/3zpiMbm
    Heat gun- I use mine to quickly dry paint, soften the glue to dismantle furniture and quickly cure polymer clay without an oven. Gets a lot hotter than a hair dryer.
    amzn.to/3YBAIcH
    Craft heat gun that doesn't get as hot as mine
    amzn.to/3ZZ5wWe
    I have lots of projects planned ranging from abandoned miniatures, furniture makeovers, accessories, kits and Dollhouse Miniatures in multiple scales. I also have a large Harry Potter build planned for 1" scale.

    AMAZING, so glad I subscribed. I LOVE that you scratch-build your miniatures, so many of my favourite channels have started using 3D printers etc, which just isn't as fun to watch on RUclips, and you may as well just buy pre-made miniatures if you're going to 3D print them (in my opinion). Watching and learning how to hand craft miniatures from your videos is such a pleasure. Thank you so much for sharing your incredible ideas and tips xx

      I feel the same way about quite a few of the 3-D printing videos I've seen. I love watching and learning from Queen City. She is very easy to understand and follow and achieve the same results, more or less LOL 😅, it will take more time and practice for what I make to reach this level of realism. She's so awesome!!!

    I was so confused when you started by cutting a circle! This was such an awesome project. I couldn’t wait to find out how you’d made the ornate texture and sure enough, it was something clever and surprising. I also had a chuckle at the very current bill design being used in a vintage cash register. I like to think it’s a hipster store owner who uses that register as well as a mechanical typewriter.

    Okay, you explained that this was crafted from found objects - and yeah I see that - all except for a couple a' things. Can you tell me where to find the creativity and imagination you use to come up with your projects????? I feel particularly satisfied when I stick a plastic leaf in a tooth paste tube cap and call it a plant.......................you continuously amaze (and amuse!).

      🤣 Maybe you don't need the creativity ingredient if you keep watching my channel and do what I do!

      Have fun! I suggest using finer lace than I did for the drawers. Also, decorate the back of the register too. Mine will be visible on the counter and it looks ugly 😆
