Here is a picture of my completed clock. I really like the way it turned out and it'll get a lot of use. Thanks once again.

Had the day off and decided to put my clock together. It turned out pretty good. Now I have to figure out where I'm going to hang it. Maybe my workshop...Hmmm

Could not get the photo bucket link to work for me. Dave's clock looks good though. Here's the Mopar clock I made several years ago. It's an old neon clock from the 40's or 50's. The original color of the clock case is Mopar Maroon. Was hanging in my father in laws garage for years with just a plain white face. I added a cheap Mopar metal sign to the face to make a Mopar neon clock. The total diameter of the clock is about 15 inches.

Nicely done, Norm. It would look good in a den or behind a bar. Very nostalgic looking.

Nice clocks, Dave and Norm. Dave, did you make the frame part of the clock and add the numbers or was it an old clock you had?

I used a 3/4" flat piece of oak that originally started life as part of a double decker lazy susan I made for our dining room table. I drilled a hole in the center for the movement which I bought in the craft section at Wally World that came with the numbers and hands. I traced a circle on the paper face and then cut it out and attached it with some spray adhesive. Then I added the numbers and hands, installed the battery, set the time and we were good to go.
