This is a first for me. Not much to say. It's a pocket watch. I think I'll carry it in my pocket!

Lovely John, I think it needs a fob and that fob should be attached to MY waistcoat....

I have done so much with so little for so long I am now qualified to do anything with nothing......
P.S. If you are interested in plans for any project that I post, just put some money in an envelope and mail it to me and I will keep it.
SWEET John, that is very kewl!!

That's cool, I love Cocobolo, but I'm afraid my turning cocobolo days are over, every time I turn it my face and neck starts itching and it seems to be getting worse. Maybe I'll get a bio-hazzard suit so I can keep turning it.

Hi John,
I REALLY love Cocobola! I like it even more when it is masterfully turned into a piece of "forever" jewelry! If I were you, I would NOT carry that "jem" in my pocket. I would get a gold chain and, for the FIRST time in my life, wear a necklace.
NOW, John, is that REALLY a watch or is it an alarm clock to remind you to take those "meds" for your "pain" of a couple days ago? NAW! I'm sure that all the sympathy you got from your Forum "buddies" totally cured you of all ills!
I certainly HOPE that it is NOT an alarm clock. Those things make NOISE! It seems to me that I remember a quote from some old mountain man who was once quoted as saying, "There is nothing wrong with quiet!". I can check out the source if you're interested!

I am so busy REMAKING my projects that I don't have time to make them the FIRST time!
So that's what you do with a pocket watch. I always thought they were a little big for a wrist. Hey... I'll bet we could call those wrist watches. Okay it's getting late, I'm tired, and it shows.
That's a nice watch John.

That's not just a pocket watch. That's the coolest pocket watch I've seen. Is there a kit available for the tick tock parts? That's really neat!Originally Posted by John Hart
Beautiful !
I also like how you did the multiple thumbnail pictures box. I'd like to do that in the future and could use a little instruction. Thanks!

Awesome John. That is some great work. You outdid yourself on that one.

Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.
To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funnybone.
Now that is a nice job John. I have thought about making me one of those, in fact I find myself thinking about making a lot of things that never get done.

John, do these just use a little 1 3/8 inch clock fit up from the clock suppliers?

Nice first step, John.
Now to compete the ensemble you'll need:
Some old granny glasses.
Gain 100 pounds.
Lose 75% of your hair
Get smarter - or at least look smarter.
And a vest with that special pocket.
