I’m curious as to how you did the crown and base with the carved detail. Looks good.

For the crown and base, I used a carving punch – its about the size of a small pen with the business end dimpled. Just whack it with a hammer, shift it over, repeat. Took about an hour for each (top and bottom)

Great job.

That’s a nice clock, Matt. I like the dimpled effect on the crown and base. Where did you buy the carving punch?

-- John

This is a nice clock, Matt. Cherry happens to be my favorite wood and you did a good job with the construction and finish. I like the maple and lacewood accents. They add visual interest to the piece.

Nice job.

Great Lookin Clock

Great clock.
It really pleases me that you didn’t take the easy way out and put one of those cheap battery movements in after all the work of making the great looking case (-; With regular cleaning and oiling (every 3 years) the movement should run for 50+ years.
