As I was not completly satisfied with the face on this clock i dug deep into my brain and remembered that some woods change colour when treated with a sollution derived from steel wool soaked in vinegar. A tiny droplet of this sollution was applied to each and every dowel and made sure this did not leach into surrounding timber. Here is the end result.
