Think you Jim. I see so many things that I would do different. Some are design issues, some are workmanship but overall I am proud of it.

Very very nice

Very nice work! This will be a treasure in your family for a long time to come. Congratulations!

As a frequent GFC maker myself, I can apprecieate your hard work and dedication required to create this wonderful piece. You are right about the goose-neck crown mouldings, they can be very intimodating and time consuming to make.

Thanks for sharing!

Too bad you didn’t think of a all wooden wheel clock! I could have helped you out! Your clock is absolutely beautiful. Well done!

This is truly amazing. This will be argued over by their kids. Better start on one or two more.

Looks great! My father made a GFC for our wedding, too. It has a place of honor now in our dining room. Now, 13 years later, it’s the one wedding present that I really remember and cherish. I’m sure your son and daughter-in-law will always treasure yours.

Thanks again to all for the kind words.

HeirloomWoodworking: I took a quick peek at your gallery. You do nice work.

Firecaster: I hope they have kids. I can’t wait to be a grandpa.

Charles: I may tackle a wooden clock someday, I’ll take a rain check. I peeked at your gallery as well. Beautiful clocks.

jhawkinnc: I would love to see a photo of the clock your father built.

I will check out all of your galleries as soon as I can (this work thing is really getting in the way of my social life).

Take care all and thanks again,

Beautiful clock and a great story. We love stories that go with the projects. It makes them come to life.
