Stands approximately 4 inches high and is made from Jarrah.

:)

Quote proud of this one, it's the first one I have made that isn't in Iroko.

Hope you like it.

Take a guess
To quote the good lady who's just seen this "that looks cute" always a good sign if selling to the ladies :thumbs:

Where did you get the clock face from ?

I like the turning but I'm not sure about a blue face for such a nice piece of workmanship. Does it have a skittles theme?

Thanks guys. It has been called cute, beautiful, gorgeous etc. Like I said, I am really pleased with it.

Doug - the clock faces come from eBay. I will get SWMBO to dig out a link to the seller. :)

Is that better Paul? :)

This is the final face for the clock, forgot I was supposed to be changing it for the white one. Gave me an excuse to play with my new light tent (xmas pressie!) more.

A very unusual shape to that and also a very pleasant shape well done sir.
Quite right that you should be chuffed with it.

Love the angle you set the clock at cheeky bit of turning in appearance as well, quite a little conversation piece.

Neat, Peter.:thumbs:
