    Default First Clock

    Here is my first clock made from a lump of mango after I slabbed the trunk.

    2 coats Feast Watson Pine Sanding Sealer, sanded to 240 grit, 3 coats Feast Watson Maple Proof Tint followed by 3 coats Feast Watson Glossproof sanded to 600 grit and polished with EEE-Ultra Shine. Don't know if the selection of products and technique is technically correct but I'm happy with the result.

    Thanks to Janine for speedy service with my order.

    cheers
    Derek

    Thumbs up

    You are right! It is a "lump" of Mango.

    Like it!!

    Personally I would have placed the three smaller dials further up to the left. But that is just me.
