Made this, not my plan, I think Wood Workers magazine a year + ago, Q sawn white oak, I got the works from Klock Kit, very happy with them, works are electronic, the chimes are perfect. Face and bottom is Birds eye Mable, lower has greened copper for the sun burst, with a Indian Head Penny, raised, that was a ton to route it and get it greened up, pee worked the best.

The SO asked me today, "what are you going to do to day"? I said "nothing". She said, "that's what you did yesterday"! Me, "Yes love, but I was not finished yet"!!!!!!!!

women have trouble understanding Trump's MAGA theme because they had so little involvement in making America great the first time around.
We stayed with my wife's parents for Christmas until New Year's and then drove back. Her dad and I hung it two days after Christmas. I told SWMBO that I want to make one for our living room and she said, "No, it's too big."
After staying in the house a few days and seeing it on the wall, now she wants one in our house. Add that to my list of things to build...
Nice clock Brad. I looked at Klockit just to get another look. It didn't reveal much, but I did see something that intrigued me. This is an actual mechanical clock? This is not battery operated?
Thanks,
Paul
Yup, it's a mechanical clock, powered by the large brass cylinder. It's good for about seven days, but can be "reset" prior to that--pull the opposite end of the chain to raise the weight up to keep it going.
Setting the speed on the clock to ensure it keeps correct time is a bit of a pain, and takes several days, but it's easy to do--on the pendulum, there's a weight held in place by a nut. Lower the nut to slow the clock, raise it to speed it up.
