My First Clock

[Superbunny]

Hi
This is my first clock and I'd like some constructive feedback from the more experienced please as I know I can always do better. The timber is Mallee with Jonathon Knowles fitup.:D:D

Welcome to the clockmakers! You may have just started on the road to addiction!

Mallee burl is always nice and you have a really interesting peice. Well done too:2tsup:

A question: Did you rout out a pocket for the mechanism at the back or cut it with a forstner bit? (just interested to see how others do it)


Great work,

Chipman (clock addicted!)

Thanks guys, and yes I'm already addicted and on to my second clock, boy I love this clock making stuff:D. I did no cutting as it's as hard as concrete and the clock centre went all the way through and did not require cutting in. The clock guys at J Knowles said this is fine.:D:D
