We moved from Indiana to Maryland after I retired from Purdue in May. For the time being my shop is in a room in the basement, so bigger pieces are difficult. I gave however been able to make a few small projects, including this cherry clock. I had a piece of nice looking cherry that was begging to be used. There’s a thin strip of maple in the middle. Hope it finds a home soon! Thanks for looking.

Nice clock, like that Cherry, it’s got character, all the pitch, and sap makes for an attractive look in my eyes. I say embrace the imperfections.
