Hawk Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 Here's my dilemma, I originally started this project with the intent of making it a clock, but now at this point I'm not so sure. It kinda looks all right just like it is. Needs finish, but other wise I'm not sure about adding the clock stuff. So...what do ya'll think? Clock/no clock? Chris lawson56 and tomsteve 2 Quote
spirithorse Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!I think it looks great now but, if you started it as a clock, perhaps a clock insert at the bottom or to the right side of the wolf's neck. How exactly did you do this project? It doesn't look like cut the white and doesn't look like cut the black as normal fret-work. God Bless! Spirithorse Quote
wombatie Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 Is that inlayed???????????????????????????????? I would just put a small clock on the bottom right or just right of the neck. Looks great by the way. Marg Quote
kywoodmaster Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 Very nice. I vote no clock, looks great on it own. To quote everyone else "is that inlay" ? Quote

merlin Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 Looks great as is..................but it looks like a pattern printed to the wood as of already been cut.........................Hell whata I know........... Quote
lawson56 Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 I vote No.It looks just Fantastic on it's own.It would have to be a small clock.Therefore hard to see.So I would skip the clock.But thats just me. Scrappile 1 Quote

Hawk Posted December 28, 2015 Author Report Posted December 28, 2015 I probably should have explained the project a bit better in the first post. The wolf is 1/4" walnut inlayed into a pine blank I got from Michels. The pattern I've had for some time, it came from a magazine a few years back, I think it was "Creative Woodwork and Crafts" but don't quote me. Chris Quote
rjR Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 I think NO CLOCK!-- It is so nice as is; the clock will be a minus! Quote
scrollerpete Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 I vote no clock it will take away from the inlay Quote
bobscroll Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 It looks very nice as is Chris, Thank you for showing, Bob Quote
Hawk Posted December 28, 2015 Author Report Posted December 28, 2015 I think no clock, I really like it the wayit is. Now to figure out a good way to finish it..... Quote
ubgoofy2003 Posted December 29, 2015 Report Posted December 29, 2015 I really like it, Hawk. I tried inlay some time ago & am afraid to go there again. I think I did it the hard way for the first time. I did it with acrylic. Yikes ! Have you ever used the resin & hardener mix for a finish ? I use one called Envirotex. It comes out beautiful. Just like glass. By the way, your Wolf is beautiful. Looks great. Quote
penquin Posted December 29, 2015 Report Posted December 29, 2015 It does look great on its own but if you do a clock one in a bottom corner would work nicely. With the clock in it it will get looked at a lot more times. I sort of like the idea of a clock. jim penquin Quote
Paul hd Posted December 30, 2015 Report Posted December 30, 2015 That's amazing. I think it looks great as is. If it had to have a clock then it would have to be inlaid numbers and only the hour and minute hand proud of the surface. Quote
Gordster Posted December 30, 2015 Report Posted December 30, 2015 TICK TOCK NO CLOCK.....Great just as it is...when you finish it,it will be as bold as heck love it.. Quote
Scrappile Posted December 30, 2015 Report Posted December 30, 2015 Looks like the votes have been cast, but had I not been late I would have voted "No" Great work. Quote
Hawk Posted December 30, 2015 Author Report Posted December 30, 2015 No clock for this project. Just cant bring myself to put one on, it would take away from the Wolf. Scrappile 1 Quote
