A desk clock
|
|
Desk or mantle clocks make ideal Christmas presents, especially for the uncle who already seems to have everything he could possibly need. The problem is that the typical clock design is rather boring, being a rectangular block of wood with a clock mechanism stuck on it. Of course, it doesn't have to be that way. The only basic factors for a desk clock are that it must tell the time, and that it must be able to stand on its own base. No one ever said that it must be square, rectangular or any other shape! With this in mind, we present this clock design not as a fait accompli, but rather as a starting point for your own creativity.

Build a tall clock - Classic Cherry
|
|
When you think of clean lines and minimal ornamentation, the last thing that comes to mind is traditional design. Unless you're a woodworker, that is. Those of us who spend our quality time in the shop know that the Shaker community of the last century pioneered a style of building that was utilitarian and austere, yet elegant and classical. It's with these Shaker design principles in mind that we've created our cherry tall clock

Building a Shaker Wall Clock
|
|
I have no qualms with historical accuracy, except when it comes to techniques that may have worked in the past but are not suitable today. Wood movement is one of those areas. The Shakers did not have to deal with forced hot-air heat. We do. Shaker clock makers built their cases to fit their mechanisms. We must build our cases to fit mechanisms that are commercially available today. To me, that seems perfectly aligned with Shaker ideals.

Table Top Clock
|
|
In this episode of DIY Wood Works, host David Marks builds an elegant table-top clock with a face made from wengae and quilted-maple veneer. The design of this contemporary clock provides some opportunities for working with advanced woodworking techniques -- including creation of wood veneering, use of a vacuum press, and shaping a solid wood block into a faceted top-piece. The straight lines of the finished case, and the symmetry of the sculpted top, are characteristic of the enduring arts-and-crafts style of furniture design. The alternating wedges of quilted maple and wengae create a striking look for the clock face.

My daughter wanted a wall clock for her new apartment. To be honest, I promised her one about six months ago when the new apartment was unheard of, but it is time to turn a clock.

Wall Clock
|
|
My wife and I visited some old friends of hers and as we entered their house, I couldn?t help but notice a great clock. It was 20 inches in diameter so it would have been hard to miss. I thought it was just an ?art? piece, but as the hands turned, I saw that it was a real battery operated giant clock ? and I had to make one. I took a couple of measurements.
