Clock

The modern world lives off clocks. That means that we all use clocks regularly!

The question for a turner is, \"What type of clock do you use?\". Usually, the answer is whatever is available. But it\'s within our power to make custom clocks that are wood turned, show some flair and are personal to us!

Clock parts are readily and inexpensively available so it\'s a matter of \"deciding\" to make a clock for yourself. Here are some helpful articles to helping you figure out what you clock will look like!

A Wall Clock by Darrell Feltmate

Building a wall clock from a single piece of wood can be a fun and easy project. In this photo tutorial, Darrell shows how he built this clock for his daughter.

The process is very clear and shows how to turn the clock. In addition, he shows how he uses a brass tube and fills it with a hand turned walnut dowel to create the time increment inserts. It's a very interesting technique and can be useful for many other projects.

I'm sure that you'll be impressed with the end result of this clock!!

In this multi-page detailed photo tutorial, Bob Hamilton shows us how he builds a segmented clock frame. Every step of the process is well documented and well photographed. This is a project that is well worth the time it takes to make!!
