INSTRUCTIONS

Make the upright

Attach a copy of the pattern to the wood using spray adhesive. Bore all interior blade entry holes using the 1/16''-Dia. bit, then use the Forstner bit to bore the 1-3/8"-Dia. hole 1/4" deep for the clock insert. Begin cutting along pattern lines, working from the center outward. Remove the pattern, then shape the outer edges using the Moto Tool and roundover bit. Sand as needed.

Make the base

Use the router with your choice of decorative edge bit to shape all four sides of the base. Sand as needed, then attach the upright clock piece to the base using wood glue and screws.

Apply finish of choice and allow to dry. Insert clock movement according to manufacturer's instructions and enjoy!
