My teen aged son decided to build a clock last year. I assumed he would make an insert clock model, but instead he showed me the Spring 2011 issue of Scrollsaw magazine.
With the fearlessness of a teenager, he cut out, sanded, filed and assembled the clock. My assistance was minimal-only helping out with jigs and technique. After about a 15 months, here is the finished product.
Materials were baltic birch plywood and misc scraps from the shop for supporting parts. The hardest parts was finding a 4' dowel and hunting down the lead shot for the weight. It was cutout on an RBI 220 scrollsaw.
