I’m making some clocks for my brother and sister. First one isalmost complete, just need to refine the curves a bit, stain and add the hardware. Wood is red oak. Approximately 12x6x4 (hopefully the dimensions are in the right sequence! Lol) the case was assembled with simple dados, that I decided to nail, with handmade dowels, for added strength and character. I did use a router for the edge treatment, mainly because I was give a router for Christmas last year and felt obligated to use it. However all joints and shaping were made by hand. Fun little project. Next clock will be made out of mahogany.
Had a day off of work today and was able toalmost finish this clock. I worked on making the circles more circular.. Lol and made a pull like Paul’s out of oak and walnut. Just need to stain and finish this. Thus is going to be a Christmas present for my sister…
Oops I missed this one. I do like the clock Dan, I’m sure your sister will love it. Nice work buddy 😉
Very nice Dan! Look forward to seeing it with the finish on.

I need to fix top hinge, it’s not quite inline with the bottom… I’m thinking it will be an easy fix. I will just drill the holes out, plug them and realign the hinge. However, I have another problem. I broke a bras screw. Does anyone know how to remove a broken screw?
When I brake a screw I just drill it out with a small drill bit. Brass is soft so it’s quickly done
