It’s been a while since I posted anything, but I haven’t wasted the time. I’ve been working on the wedding clock. Lots of it is taking much longer than I expected. Doesn’t really matter, it’s not about speed. I am close to finishing the wedding clock; close enough that I finished sanding and put a coat of finish on the back and base. I was stunned at what I found when I cleaned up this cherry slab. The picture is a bit shiny because the finish is still wet, but Holy Cow!!! I can’t take any of the credit – this is all Mother Nature’s work.
And just to kind of bring things up to date, here is the base for the wedding clock. It is made from Jatoba (Brazilian Cherry). The shelves are also made from Jatoba, those will mount on the other side of the slab along with the Hermle Ravensburg movement.
