Popular Post Oldmansbike Posted August 31, 2020 Popular Post Posted August 31, 2020 Took two and a half months 2 cans spray glue, 1 roll blue tape and I lost count on how many blades. It has mistakes in it but I think it turned out pretty good. Still have to add the movement. ben2008, Birchbark, williamlewis and 19 others 19 3 Quote

flarud Posted August 31, 2020 Posted August 31, 2020 Super cool! I have my eye on a couple of these patterns on Cherry Tree. Quote
FrankEV Posted August 31, 2020 Posted August 31, 2020 I'm adding my WOW. Just wondering, how many individual pieces and what wood di you use? Quote
Rockytime Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 Good grief! Two and 1/2 months. Must have been 24/7. Unbelievable. What a wonderful thing you made. I could do it in two decades. What is it made of? 1/8 or 1/4 "? Quote
spirithorse Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 Excellent project! Just beautiful! Did you use only spray glue to join everything? That is an heirloom for sure! Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse Quote

I used 1/4 inch cherry. I didn't count the number of pieces just guessing I would say around 75 to 100 FrankEV 1 Quote

Oldmansbike Posted September 1, 2020 Author Posted September 1, 2020 I like making these clocks. This is my third one. Next up is the Chimes of Normandy. Some day I will tackle the Dome clock. Quote
wombatie Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 Here's another, WOW That would have taken a few hours. Marg Quote
flarud Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 Clamping these kinds of projects while the glue dries can be frustrating. Gotta get creative with rubber bands, tape, etc. Quote
don watson Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 Incredible piece of work. I would love to try one of these but don't have the skill/patience/time/ideas/all round gumption lol Quote
rdatelle Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 Great job on that. Looks as hard as my clock tower I did. Took about a month. Quote
Fish Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 Great work. You sure have patience. I can’t wait to see another. Quote
