That's fascinating - is it real or is it photoshop?

It is a very interesting clock, It must not have a long pendulum or chimes.

It's interesting and would be great for a restaurant. But I much prefer a traditional clock for a home.

I have some re-sawn African mahogany stock that would be perfect for a project like that..... ;)

That had to be a challenging build.

If that clock were untied you could put it in the living room and view it from the mezzanine.

Very well done. It impresses me as a very skilled clock maker, getting really bored.

Very cool looking. The web site doesn't list many details. I am guessing it is veneer over a wood shell with a battery operated movement. It still has a traditional looking clock face. I like it.

I'll take your clock and raise you Wendell Castle's "Ghost Clock":

That looks like a project I could make easy work of, as long as no one lifted its skirt.
