The Bogan Shire Council began the process in March 2015 and the design of the statue was created digitally and provided to a local steel supplier to make a cut-out. The final product was 5.96 metres (19.6 ft) tall and weighed close to 1,500 kilograms (3,300 lb).In 2022, a pet dog was added to the sculpture.
