Just finished this project for my mums birthday at the end of the month ,she loves Elephants and I saw this H Botas pattern and thought this would be just right. Made using 1/4inch BB Plywood using a # 1 spiral blade ,stained with danish oil then a clear varnish, Also made my first frame ,you think it would be easy to make a frame but it was a learning curve lol! My joints are not perfect but for a first attempt I thought it was ok. Frame made of oak also stained with danish oil and clear varnish then used black mount board for backer ,thanks for looking

Thank you very much I agree I much prefer the clock I enjoyed making this one,the rose was ok but very fragile and I don't like doing lettering as you can spot mistakes easier lol!!
-
Thanks ,it's my first try at making a clock my dad loves grandfather clocks so I thought I would give it a bash,it was a fun one to make cheers dan

Thank you ,I like the clock better too

Thanks Dick,yes it gives you a real sense of achievement and it's a much more personal gift than just buying something

Made these as a gift for my mum and dad,both Steve good patterns. I had some oak worktop left over from my kitchen so used it up. first attempt at a clock i think it turned out ok, Also added a stand to the Mother rose as it was quite fragile. Finished with danish oil and 3 coats of clear varnish.

Thanks Denny very kind of you to say so . I see some of the projects on here and could only wish to one day be anywhere near close to the quality of workmanship that you good people produce. I just need to take advantage of all the help and tips and resources available on this platform everyone is so kind and helpful .But the main thing is I am having fun so who thought learning could be fun !! Thanks again Denny take care ,Dan
-
He sure is ,I think these would sell just need to keep practising on the lettering as that's one of my downfalls.Thats why I prefer patterns without letters because you can hide your mistakes lol But I will keep going with it and I'm sure I'll get there
