Puzzle Box 5 - The Clock is finally completed. This is the last project that I started in North Carolina before moving to Knoxville. The oak of the bottom section was given to me by my friend Joe Scharle and the purple heart left over from the Parthenon puzzle cabinet project. This project took...
This latest clock is called the St. Augustine Clock, made from a Dirk Boelman design. I did this one in white oak and black walnut. It has progressive Wstminster Chimes and pendulum. I made 2 of these, with 1 going to the Hickory American Legion Fair Board, to be auctioned at the annual meeting...
