Clocks
« 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 usually gety mine at Hobby Lobby. They have extra hands in about three styles also. My brother just got one at a Rockler store last week but, it didn't even come with hands, it was just the clock works! :(

I had a look at the website mentioned by Bzeyher, and looked at the gallery of clocks there. Does anyone know how this one was made??? lol

What pattern are you going to make? I was thinking of doing the same but there are a lot of good looking clocks to choose from.

This little guy was kind of fun, and not too hard. One of Steves patterns.

Yup, I just cut 20 of those little mini alarm clocks for the shows coming up. I am tying a ribon around the top and will be selling them as ornaments!

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.

Dustin...

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.
