Balancing Clocks (new and improved)

I like this one better than your first (and I liked it a lot The round dowel connecting the horizontal bar to the frame gives the suggestion of a pivot point, creating a pendulum. It’s as though a pendulum was frozen “mid-swing”!

Very unusual clocks and they make a nice conversation piece. Nice work.

Thanks, everyone. To answer “luv2learn” – I purchased the clocks from Woodcraft and used a 2 3/8” diameter Forstner bit for the hole. It’s a nice press fit.
