Default Mantle Clock

The wife doesn't like the spalted maple in the back, so I guess this
goes to Mom for mother's day. :-)

Omgosh! I have to compliment you on you sense of style, proportion and
materials. I built one of these back in the 70's as one of my first
"serious" projects. Your face is quite a bit nicer than mine, but pretty
similar otherwise.

Nice Job. Looking at my picture I need to dig out the Tung Oil again.

Thanks. I like the hinged door on yours. That will make it into my next one.

I agree with her but, that is just personal preference. Many do like it and
there is no doubt that you did a fine job on the clock.
