Padauk Clock

[broitblat]

I came across a nice piece of Padauk. It started only 1/2" thick, so it seemed well suited for a simple clock.

Very nice work Barry! if you where to turn it up the other way it would have the look of a great Desert Sun Set. you could also paint a camel in there just an idea, it looks fine as is.

Speaking from experience, most people would need to see some sort of hour designation. Even if it where the 1/4 hours it gives a differnt perspective. Some even just put one at 12 and it again gives a different perspective. Nice piece of timber though. So many things can be done with that design. Thanks for showing.

Yeah, I kind of think of it as a sun *rise* this way...

Thanks.

what did u use for finish?

This one was finished with 4 coats of "Master's Magic". It is a spray-on I got from CSUSA.

Barry, I know I am the oddball of the group, but when that first popped up, I saw a photo of Jupiter with the Big Red Spot showing. Too many days, er uh nights, staring through a scope.
I like it just like you have it. That is a beautiful piece of timber and the finish is outstanding. Great work.
