my burr elm clock of madness!!

[sulkycat]

i made this years ago, & it only just struck me that it counts as craft for here!
i love it, it really confuses people - yes it does tell the time, very accurately, but as the numerals are all painted on in different places, sizes & styles its a little confusing ;-)

took a lot of sanding, then wire wool,then danish oil, then layer after layer of wax, more wire wool, more wax, & lots & lots of buffing

i have 2 tables & some celtic paintin onto wood, am assuming that when i get round to it, this is the right place to post them?

enjoy!


ps size wise - its about a metre long!

Awesome, I'd love a clock like that Great job.
This might belong in this category, but it may belong in the "home sweet home" category, as mostly everything that can be counted as interior decorating without being specific to another category... tables most definetly would go there.

Things that are more art than "usable item for your home" would go in the "more art, less craft" category. As a rule, "miscellaneous" should be your last resort

Also, this would count as being in the subcategory "completed projects"

Wow! I love that!  I always wear a watch, so the confusing element of it wouldn't affect me, hehe.

Awesome job! I really dig the scattered numbers on the natural wood shape.

ITS FAB!!!

I love the natural wood. The fact that you left it in a odd shape really adds to the randomness of the numbers.
