Photo's on a clock
I am just looking to see if anyone out there has made many clocks where they have put photo's on them as a clock Dial ? I am after info like what you printed the phot on nd if and how they were sealed ? I would really appreciate any info that is offered in how to get the best out of this process.
Thanks Ian

I made a lot a long time ago using little photo housings available in 36mm and 50mm here http://www.letsmaketime.com.au/shop/item/picture-frame.
This is the one I made for my desk at work with my kids, now over 10 years old but I haven't updated the photos

Thanks Neil but not quite what I am after lol I am looking to paste larger photo's onto timber that I have either turned or just cut and sanded I was then thinking of putting a 2 pack epoxy finish or something similar over the top. This is why I am wondering what sort of paper to use and weather it should be sealed ? or what else I might have to do to make the whole thing work ?
So anymore idea's would be great
Cheers Ian

Ian, Google "decoupage photos" and I am sure you will find the information you are after.
Glasscraft also has some info on their website.
