INSTRUCTIONS

In memory of my grandfather

One of the earliest memories I have of my grandfather is sitting on a bench next to him as he played the piano. His hands would fly across the keys, filling the house with music. Logic says that as time passed, his fingers were not as fast or as accurate, but I never saw that. Although he ga\te me a love for piano music, I now realize that one of the best gifts I ever received from my grandfather was the gift of his time.

Cut and assemble the clock

Adhere the patterns, found in Full Size Pattern Section No. 1, to the wood with temporary-bond spray adhesive. Drill starter holes for the internal cuts, then cut out the design. Remove the patterns from the wood and sand as needed.

Place a line of glue around the bottom tabs cut into the upright and insert the upright into the holes cut into the base (see the Assembly View Drawing). Clamp the assembly together until the glue has dried thoroughly.

Using the photograph as a guide, paint the front of the music bars and notes Black and allow to dry. Next, apply finish of choice to the entire assembly. When the finish has dried thoroughly, insert the mini clock movement.

Sit your clock atop of your piano or mantle and I create some beautiful family memories of your own
