That turned out really nice. Great choice on the woods. Fantastic.

Gorgeous clock ….where did you find the timepiece ?

-- When did quiet and quite become the same word ? I'm guessing about the same time as your and you're did.

That’s a beautiful clock. I would love to build one like it. Can you tell me where you got the clock parts for it. I can’t seem to find anything that looks that good. They are all white faced with gold bezels.

Beautiful wood, wonderful project. Great job

VERY nice! Looking forward to seeing many, many more projects coming off your workbench in the future. Thanks for sharing.

Hey guys, thanks for the encouraging words. I know what you guys mean about “vanilla” clockfaces as I like mine more colorful. These clock fitups are found at Klockit and are reasonably priced.

Caution tho, they say that a 2 1/4 forstner bit is required, which I purchased form another source. When I went to fit the clock, I found that 2 1/4 was too small and I had to use a sanding drum on a drill press to enlarge the opening in the walnut a wee bit. Hmmmm…

Beautiful clock.
Nice choice of woods.
They look great together with that clock face.
It’s in my favourites now, and I’m going to copy this exactly.
Also, thanks for the clock insert link.

Ya, I’m just full of flatulence. Wait! What?
I’m actually making a clock for my father right now, but with boring old Lee Valley clock inserts.
I really am going to copy this.
Where did you get the plans?
Or can you tell me your dimensions?
