Title: Clocks
Post by: countryscroller on October 06, 2012, 07:08:09 pm: I was just wondering where some of you guys get mini clocks to fit the patterns of Steve Good's. I plan on making people clocks for Christmas and wondered where I can get them, and as cheap as I can find them. Thanks, Dustin

I haven't decided yet. Last year i sold them for $10 each. The clock inserts are costing me around $6. I am going to sell them as Christmas ornaments this year and charge maybe $15 each or two for $28, but I'm not sure yet.

I just received an order of 5 clocks last week from "The Wooden Teddy Bear" who are located in Portland, OR. Total cost, including shipping (I live in Canada) was just over $40.00 for all 5 of them. Pretty good deal in my opinion.
