    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.

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