Mantle Clocks Pics

[Bob Lasley]

Good Evening All,

Finished these two mantle clocks this evening. Both are made of walnut. One has a piece of curly maple in between the body and the base. Finish is BLO and lacquer rubbed out with paste wax.

Thanks for looking,
Bob

Todd, you crack me up!:D

I needed it this morning. While you're sniffing Bu Bu Binga. I'm shuffling papers.

Thanks for the laugh.

I am green with envy! I have been wanting to build a mantle clock for my wife for the past year and never seem to have enough time to get started. Very nice job and another fine example for me to use for this future project :-)

Bob,
Really nice work. The way finish/grain glows is beautiful. How many coats of lacquer?

Presents I presume? Or do you have a lot of fireplaces? ;)

Thanks for the kind comments folks.

Halsey, I build non-union clocks so I don't have to put up with striking! :D (Sorry, I just couldn't resist) No, they don't as I hate noisy clocks that wake me up in the middle of the night.

Wes, I think I put on four coats of lacquer over one coat of BLO. Part of the "glow" may be from rubbing out the lacquer with paste wax. One of them is for SWMBO and the other will probably be a gift for someone, unless SWMBO decides she wants them both!

Todd, Not sure what time I took the pictures. I forgot to look at my watch! :D

Thanks again,
Bob

Tee-Hee-Hee-Hee...!!!!! Todd.......you need to be working on that Big Bubinga.....not cracking jokes....but I DID need that chuckle today.

Bob, great looking clocks! The Walnut really comes to life under that lacquer. Thanks for sharing.

[Chris Padilla]

They look nice Bob! What time did you take the pictures? :)

LOL! Don't you know that clocks should always be at either 1:50 or 10:10 when photographed?? :D

Seriously, look at any ad for a clock or watch...10:10 is usually the time on them.

[Ace Karner]

Nice work Bob, the mad hatter would be proud. :D

[Jim Becker]

For whatever reason, I've always like the look of that particular style mantle clock. You have done the design justice and gorgeous looking wood! Thanks for posting. :cool:
