    Default My latest French style balloon clock

    The black lacquered balloon clock is my latest. I'm hoping to produce and post a pdf containing 60+ photographs, each one with added text detailing every stage from template design through to the end result.

    Nice work Harry; I particularly like the one on the left! What timber did you use?

    Dean.

    Thanks Dean, the large one on the left which measures about 360mm to the tip of the finial and uses a 150mm clock fit-up is made from furniture grade Jarrah and is the first of the many similar clocks that I've made since 2001, all the other ones have been given away as presents.

    Whilst I was able to open the file, it took more than the usual double click, I had to click on a message at the bottom left corner, Feedback on this oddity will be appreciated.
