Pedestal Ash Clock


Recommended Posts

Thanks oldypigeonpopper, it was a bit testing at times, but will look good once squared up and glued.

It was a nice project to do and a fair bit of working out on graph paper.

If I was to make another one, I think it would be a lot easier 🤞

That looks absolutely fantastic.

I`m wondering what you are going to come up with next.

Keep posting, whatever it is.:good:

Thank you Old Boggy, it turned out very nice, and looks better than the photos, and polished very nicely 👍

 I have ordered a slightly smaller diameter clock insert to replace the one in the photo.

At the time this was the only insert I had left.

I don’t have anything planned for the next project, but something will turn up.

Hi Gordon, I have seen a few nice looking Barometer inserts on the internet, and this one is around 100mm diameter and £22.

I don’t know what the quality is like but it’s available from The Shed Shop.

I will keep looking a bit longer, and hopefully come up with a few different ideas.

Hello, I looked on line and there is such an array of Barometers it is difficult to know on quality, I have a Made in England one in a Banjo surround , How accurate these are i have no idea, cheers

Just an update, I have been waiting this week for parts to complete a lamp project, I started last week.

I decided to turn 2 different styles of clocks out of pieces of Sapele I had in the shed.

They were both very nice to turn and fitted different inserts.

I’m very pleased how they turned out.

The parts finally arrived yesterday for the lamp 👍
