This is my first attempt at a clock. Turned out pretty well, though the
wife doesn't like the spalted maple back......

Yeah, it did. But I'll side with the wife on the spalted back, it
makes it look like something in the top barfed, and it leaked down.

Thanks, guys. My wife will be glad to hear she's not alone, J T.
From here and other sources I've gotten feedback from, most people
either find the spalted maple back the best feature of the clock, or
else they really don't like it at all.
