Earned a few brownie points with SWIMBO she has been asking for a wall clock for some time now and it was a sure way to get some extra shed time
Got the movment from GPs great service it arrived in 3 days from order
The rim of the clock is 200mm and the outer dia is 350 about 40mm thick
the Camphor laurel is an offcut from a bench top slab (would have loved to get the good bit) it is sanded to 400 and sealed with N/C sealer and then EEE wit 3 coats of Glow to finish
and I got to spend the rest of the day in the shed:D:D:D

Lovely work--would have loved to see the "good bit" of the CL as the offcut is spectacular.:2tsup:

Nice!
But do you think it wise to give her something to check your shed-time with? :D

SWIMBO must have been so happy! (SWIMBO???) I know I would have been!
