NANCY KAT VENDO 2000 SWAMP WITCH GUITAR A GIFT FROM RTZ

The Nancy Kat vendo-matic 2000 swamp witch guitar.
RTZ wanted to gift Nancy Kat a swamp witch guitar ,, just for being herself on the nation , her kind hearted comments and uplifting majestic cat photos gracing our posts , with cheerful inspiration and a healthy smile . He even wanted to try and represent it as appreciation from all her friends on the nation . Short of somehow everyone signing it . he asked for something a lil wild and a big cool factor . so .. I figured .. why not add cat food vending machine ..lol ;-) should be Just crazy enough to do the trick.
Nancy cat was thrilled to hear about the gift , and only requested a cat with a witch hat somewhere in the design and both gave me free reign beyond that .
So .. I came up with the cat vendo ;-)
The coin slot is made out of a small curtain rod hook .. I just ripped the hook off and the tongue , and snipped the slot out bigger .
Lol, I even made the cat food . it’s actually chopped up pieces of that block of wood from inside cigar boxes that nobody can think of a use for ;-)
The clear window is the plastic lens off one of those push light bars you stick on the closet wall. I just cut it in half .
The wheel/ crank is off an antique typewriter .
The back plate is an oak fretboard ;-)
The collection tray is a window lock.
Tada .!. a mini vending machine ;-)The rest of the guitar is regular swamp witch build .
I think it is awesome that RTZ did this for her .
Swamp witch gifting and other gifting on here is soo cool to see . and has been happening a lot lately . Downtown vinnie gifted ice bob a swamp witch just a while ago also , etc etc etc ..
Heck I’ve even gifted a few my self .
In the case of vinnie and rtz ETC … and members on here gifting other members a swamp witch , I have always offered to pay the shipping .
sooooo, I will offer that again to any one that wants to gift another CBN member a swamp witch in usa or Canada ,, ill pay the shipping . ( you save about $40).
You all are awesome .. congrats Nancy cat , you deserve it .. and RTZ hella kootoos ;-)
HOPE YA LIKE IT !!!! ;-)

Thanks everyone, I've given half the guitars I have made away and it is a big part of this site Starting with the CBG's For Service Memebers. I did want to try and find a way to transfer photos of signatures on to it but It was to much. But it is awesome I knew pick would do a great job this is the first I have seen it perrrrrfect for N.Kat.

Enjoy Nancy as it says on the back it's from all us this was just the easiest way to get it done.

I think the response here says it all. Thanks pick
