A woodworker with too much time
I have had this old milk jug sitting in my shop for years. In fact, it was there before my shop. I always wanted to paint it in a woodworking theme but nothing seemed to fit. I once painted it Dewalt yellow but that did not fit. Then one day it hit me. Ok it's a bull but it works.

To do the Logo I just found a photo on the web of an Elmer's glue bottle. I blew it up in a photo program to 8x10. Printed it out. Used spray glue (Elmers of course) to attach to the can. Used a razer blade to cut out around the letters to create a mask. Then painted. I first painted the background white then the blue and orange on top of the white.
The brown color of the can is an exact match of wood glue.
