Clock

[Lyle H. Fall]

Hi I thought I would show you my latest project I tried some different things on this one. You people were a lot of help on this one learned a lot on veneer and finishing got the books on finishing lots of help.
I did all the carving the clock is about 52" long it was a 4 months worth of work The back and dial plate is burl walnut veneer and has an oil and shellac finish 4 coats and the rest has a satin lacquer finish I am very happy with it made it for my Wife she is happy now but not so much while I work on it spent to much time in the garage just want to say Thank You for all your help

Hi Dave I drew it up myself but had got ideas from many other clocks I just watch for things I like then draw them up for my needs this one has taken the most time it is the 5th one I have made some of my own design and some a rough copy Thanks
