Saw a post yesterday about a pedestal clock so I tried my own.

It will be for my granddaughters birthday in April.

Great looking clock Keith. Being a clockman I have built and turned a few. This one is well done.

Looks good. You might want to make a plug for the hole in the back.

Never turned one of those... looks like a pretty cool idea for a gift! Your granddaughter is going to love it!

Boy I am always looking for clock ideas and just getting into turning I am now looking for turned clock ideas. I hope you don't mind me borrowing a few ideas.

Great job and the form looks good. I like the way you inset the clock face. Nice touch. Thanks for showing. I would love to see more examples of this type clock turning.
