INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1. Roughly cut the upright workpiece to size using the scroll sow. To reduce the amount of hand sanding to be done later, use a palm sander to sand both sides of the upright and base work pieces. Set the base piece aside.

Step 2. Photocopy the pattern, saving the original for future use. Apply a layer of masking tape to the top of the upright work piece. Using temporary-bond spray adhesive or a glue stick, attach the pattern to the taped surface.

Step 3. Drill the majority of the blade entry holes using the 3/32" bit.

Step 5. To ensure the work piece will sit flush on the saw table, remove the burrs created from drilling the hcies b . running a scraper blade along the grain of the wooc

Step 6. Make the inside cuts on the pattern using the No. 7 blade.

Step 4. Use a 1/32" bit to drill the very small holes at the base of the upright.

Step 7. Determine the exact size of the opening required to house your clock insert. Use a compass to draw the appropriate-sized circle on the pattern. (Refer to the center point for the clock insert opening on the pattern when drawing the circle.)
