Fused Glass Clock

[Bob Wemm]

Hi People,
Finally got this clock finished. I did the fusing months ago and also bought the movement and hands. The hold up was the hole in the middle. The glass was too big (12") to fit under my drill press so it had to be done by hand, and quite frankly that scared me a bit.
I eventually gathered the courage to drill the hole, and then it took me 2 hours to find the movement, it was in one of those safe places.

Anyway, it's all done now and ready for the exhibition next month.

Hope you like it, and C&C welcome.

Bob.

We don't see many pieces on IAP where grass is involved, I reckon the time you spend with it was well worth it, it looks great and it will a guaranteed sale on the Exhibition, for sure...!

Great stuff Bob...!:wink:

Cheers

Very nice! So did you find a bunch of other things in the "safe place?"

Great looking clock. I have a friend that does fused glass. He turns bowls and makes
fused glass lids for them. Very unique and beautiful. He sells a ton of them.

No mate,
There are too many "Safe Places" to ever have a double up.:biggrin:

That is a great looking clock!

And an inspiration: we just started doing glass fusing. Thanks for the idea!

Bob,
Love the clock... we have a lady in our local art guild that works in fused glass... she does some phenomenal things with glass.... looks like your are in her class. Good luck at the exhibition.

You've reminded me!!! I really must buy a cupboard I can label as "Safe Place"
But its got to be BIG.

John
