My latest project
« on: September 16, 2010, 12:11:09 pm »
This is a Christmas gift for my son who plays in a band and at Church. (Just don't tell him! ;)

It is cherry and walnut finished with wipe-on pollyurethane.
Hope you enjoy it.




It is 18" tall and 6" wide. it has a piece at the top for hanging on the wall. I used wire for the frets and strings. Getting the clock works and strings on at the sme time was a bit fiddly but, it works!  ;D

Very nice project! 

I can imagine the difficulties of getting the strings and the clock hands to cooperate.
