You folks are probably getting sick of my clock projects by now ;) , but I thought I'd post my most recent.

It is based on my own design, built around a mini quartz pendulum. Made from Curly Quartersawn Red Oak, except for the back door. The front piece is joined to the sides with dados. The sides are joined together with dowels. The top & bottom are joined to the front and sides with glue and dowels. I put on 1 coat of tung oil diluted 50% with MS.

Constructive criticism is welcome.

VERY nice, John! I always enjoy looking at someone else's projects, and never tire of looking at such nice pieces.

I really must try making some clocks in the near future. Thanks for sharing,
