Rockytime Posted July 8, 2021 Report Share Posted July 8, 2021 I am building a Dirk Boelman clock, The Williamette. I think I bought the plans from the Winfield Collection. I'm looking for more of Dirk's plans. I've gone back to the Winfield Collection site and cannot find any Fretwork clock patterns. I must be having a senior moment as I thought that is where I purchased the pattern but it has been a while since I ordered it. Does anyone know where his patterns can be purchased since his website is no longer up? OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockytime Posted July 9, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2021 When I tried the artfactory I had googled fretwork clock patterns. The artfactory came up in a list. I clicked on it and it said the site could not be reached. Kinda weird as I have done that many times without a problem. Typing the .com address worked. Thank you for the replies!

meflick Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) Glad you got it worked out. The nice thing about going directly to the Boelmans’ own website https://theartfactory.com there is no middleman taking a cut so his family gets the full proceeds from the purchase. I have gotten several things from Karen there in the past, and she has always been prompt and helpful. Note that Karen has told me before that not all of Dirk’s patterns are listed on the website but that if there is one not there you are looking for, she can usually provide it with a few details of what you are looking for. As pointed out, you have to have the word “the” in the website name, no spaces.

Denny Knappen Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 I also talked with Karen about the slide through Christmas ornaments. I couldn't find them on the website nd she found them for me. Rockytime and OCtoolguy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
