Hi Group,
www.anticlan.com/clock/index

I built this clock as a 50th anniversary gift for my Parents. I had the
thing up and running (but not polished...still looked good) and I invited
them out to my house last April to see it. My Mom was in the later stages
of Parkinson's, and in a wheelchair. She couldn't get up to take a close
look, but she loved it! My Dad, too.
Soon after, they moved to North Carolina to a retirement community. Sadly,
my Mother was very ill from the start down there and she passed away in
July. I'm just glad she had a chance to see the clock.
It hung on my wall keeping excellent time until just before Christmas. I
was going south to see my Dad over the holiday, so I spent a couple weeks
polishing and lacquering the brass and finishing the walnut base. I
installed the clock on the wall of my Father's apartment the day after
Christmas. He tells me it's running good.
I really enjoyed building the clock. In fact, I got Bill Smith's
Grasshopper Skeleton clock book about a month ago.
I am indebted to many members of r.c.m. for bits of advice I picked up from
you whenever I got stuck along the way. Thanks too, to John Shadle of
onlineclockbuilding.com for answering a couple questions about gear cutting
that had me stumped. It was also from his site that I got the instructions
for building gear cutters. They work great and it's worth a trip to his
site to see his beautiful work.

Thanks all,
Nok
