instructions

Make a copy of the patterns and adhere them to the wood with the spray adhesive. Spray the adhesive onto the paper, not the wood. Bore blade entry holes for all interior cuts, then use the Forstner bit to bore the hole which will receive the clock movement. Begin cutting the design, starting from the center and working toward the outside. Remove the pattern paper from the wood. Use the 1/4" roundover bit to shape the outside of the upright. Sand as necessary.

Cut the base to size. Use the router and a decorative edge bit to rout the four sides of the base. Sand the base. Center and glue the upright on the base. Apply finish of choice. When dry, insert the clock movement and enjoy! jjrj
