Domino and Dice Clocks

[Kardav]

Not wanting to steel Ilya's thread but seeing his clocks reminded me of some novelty clocks I made a few years ago as Christmas stocking fillers. Both the Dominos and Dice are set into shallow mortices and the only clock movements and hand sets I could get in time were cheap and nasty ones from Maplins.

There is no end to the clock configurations thanks for showing yours. like them.

Friends last weekend said they spent two years in Fiji the land of no particular time for anything very laid back indeed and the clock they enjoyed showed the time numbers tumbling off the face indeed the common phrase was Fiji time, with heaps of Samoans in my Church we refer to Samoan time here another meaning but sure not the right time.

Peter. for the clocks mate.

 

[Kardav]

What diameter are they Dave

If memory serves me correct they were 9 or 10 inches diameter Alan (225-250mm)

Very nice and different Dave, and marked out well too ..

Indeed, novelty clocks. Where did they end up hanging?
