Hi All,
As a woodworker, what other way would I express my gratitude for someone who is always there for me other than expressing my thanks in wood.
I recently built this wall clock for my car mechanic and dear friend for no other reason except to say thanks for all you do for my wife and I.
The clock is @ 24” tall and is made from zebrawood, wenge and maple; he tells me that he and his wife like it. Thanks Derek for always being there for me.
All the best
Gord

Great look. I bet he is a happy mechanic :) Was the gift a hint at his ability to stay on time?
