Clock

[fiferb]

A friend gave me a chunk of African Blackwood that was a waste piece of a sculpture he was making. It already had this shape to it but was cut off with a chainsaw and had some grooves from it. I ran the face across my jointer. I had to sand the back because my friend had marked it with a black marker showing it as a waste piece from his sculpture. I used a Forstner bit for the clock hole. Deft satin spray on the back, gloss on the front. Thanks for looking and especially to those that comment.

I love the natural contrast of the sapwood and heartwood here. I am not a fan of this contrast in pens, but it works well here creating a natural look frame around the clock face.
Well done!

That's pretty sharp Bruce, real nice use of recycled waste wood.
