Hi Rob;

The clocks are beautiful. The idea of the PDF faces is great. I never would have thought of that.

And I love your signature line. That’s fantastic. Especially in my little world, it has hit the nail on the head!

My wife constantly asks me why I complicate projects, just for what to her is a little design detail.

To me it’s that part of the design that makes it special. (like me).

A friend of mine, also a General Contractor, and I often kid around about our way of thinking: “If it’s not impossible, why bother?”

I love the Shaker stuff, too. Spent 6 years living just around the corner from Shaker Village at Pleasant Hill, Kentucky. It didn’t hurt that there were positive associations from the incredible food they serve there—get your belly full of beans & cornbread or chess pie and then go look at “simple” furniture.

What I really love is the fact that you did it Neander-style. Man after my own heart. I echo Les, too!

Thank you very much. I wish I could say the PDF file was my own idea, but it was not…. I think I read about it in popular woodworking a while back… I use rare earth magnets to hold the plywood face plate in the frame of the clock. (that was my own idea) this way when one wants to change the battery, they just apply pressure on the face plate and it pops out. Also it makes the replacement of the movement a snap if case it fails.

-- Wait...there *has* to be a harder way!

I have admired Shaker stlye for many yrs. The clocks are an excellent expression of this stlye. I was wondering about the paper you used, I would appreciate a little more detail about it.

Thanks for sharing.
