Thread: Brush Box Clock

Your welcome Stirlo, but remember,,,light cuts on the edges, or you'll lose a gouge, or some knuckles ..........real fast!

half is alredy turned, was going to be a bowl ( still could be ) but i think its destined for a clock now....i turned the outside of the proposed bowl and yeah, stuffed up the spigot so its easy enough to turn into a clock

cheers and thanx again for the idea

G'Day Bruce

That's a nice clock haven't made one yet let alone a square one thanks for sharing.

Cheers

Couple of tips ... play around with the position of your work light. Sometimes the shadow or the opposite side tells you more about what's happening at the cutting edge.

Glad you brought that up Ern. I use the opposite side as a guide whenever I am turning an object of uneven circumference. On many occasions it's a far better guide than trying to see the cutting edge. This was very significant when turning this square object.

Yup. Too much crap flying around at the cutting edge. Opposite side view is often better even for regular forms.

Real nice work on that clock, Bruce!!

Thanks Gil, nice to hear from you.
