A laser-cut wooden sheet in 1:35: fourteen parts that build two large washtubs.
Responsibility details are not available.
A large wooden vessel for washing, bathing and watering cattle stood in a country yard as naturally as a well or a woodpile. In a scene from the 1940s it does a lot of work: leaning against a barn wall, set under a downspout or laid on a trestle in the middle of the yard, it makes clear that people actually lived in the place and did not only fight there. It fits just as well beside a field laundry or in the yard of a dwelling where a crew was quartered.
The sheet is cut from wood by laser and offers fourteen parts, enough for two separate vessels. The material carries its own grain, so after a wood stain or a heavily thinned paint the surface looks like a real plank; in a casting the same effect would have to be laboriously engraved. The pair of pieces lets you show the vessel in two states: one turned upside down by a wall, the other filled and in use.
The individual shapes are held in the sheet by small tabs. Cut through them with a sharp scalpel and do not snap them out, a frayed edge cannot be repaired. PVA glue holds the assembly reliably, it does not soak through the wood and leaves the pores their structure. The surfaces can be gone over lightly with the finest sandpaper before painting.
The finished vessel looks best when the shades are allowed to show through one another: a lighter bottom, darker outer walls and a greenish cast where the water would have stood. Rust marks under the hoops and a few glossy drops of spilled water around it complete the sense of everyday use.
