    Smile A clock dh recently completed (before eye surgery)

    He completed this clock just before eye surgery and we donated it to our oldest son's school for a fund raising project. Our son is purchasing the clock parts for it, thats why they aren't there.

    I'll post 3 pictures - front, side and back. All doors are on hinges and open and close. Its all made out of oak and a tiny bit of maple.

    Front.

    The only cost to making this clock was the pattern and the hinges. All wood was wood he had scrounged around and got at furniture building stores.

    Debbie, as mentioned above we donated this one to our oldest son's school for fund raising. Every year we've donated something but this is the largest item we've donated yet. I can't wait to see how much money they raise.
