My first clock

That came out great Craig! You did an excellent job on it. Can you give us a little more details, wood, blades, techniques?

Here’s a tip for the backer board. Paint the backer board with a flat spray paint before you cut the interior cuts of the overlay. Flat paint dries faster, and glue will stick to it better. While the paint is drying, drill the clock opening and cut the interior cuts. Now glue the overlay to the backer board. When dry, cut the exterior of the pattern. That way the backer board will exactly match the overlay. Then apply your topcoat.

Wow that looks awsome, I am only new to scrolling and I want to have a go at a clock but I have to try and find were I can get the clock size from in Western Australia, until I can make sure I can get one I cant do a clock 😞 I love yours

Many clock patterns can be downloaded. All you need is a printer. The issue for you may be where to get the clock parts. There must be somewhere in Australia that carry them?

 

I found this in your part of the world.  https://www.clockshop.com.au/parts/ They have clock inserts, clock movements, dials, hands etc.

Good luck with your first clock.

First clock, this was a lot of fun.

I have made many clocks from a large fretwork clock to small desk clocks just like yours. I'm making a large fretwork clock right now. I like your clock very much. Looks like you took your time and it came out beautifully.
