Hess,

The coin patterns are from Michael at http://carvebuddy.com(free):).

I get my movements from http://klockit.com as they are cheaper than your local hobby stores.

FW, we have a selection of Six Free Coin Patterns (http://www.carvebuddy.com/coins.html), but we don't have the Kennedy Half Dollar...do you recall where you got that one? It looks really nice in the photo.

Here's a clock I made with the CarveWright.

I get my parts from http://www.klockit.com (http://www.klockit.com/fundraising.aspx?dept=28) Note that's with a "k". The other website "clockit" aka Steebar is nothing but trouble and I reccomend you do a google search before you order anything from them.

Michael,

Good catch on that one. The Kennedy Half is one that I made, scanned from a coin blank. I am including the pattern for that.


Side note, noticed that the last post on that was my 1000, Senior member know:cool:

Thank you Sir

You're welcome Hess. :cool:

I wrote up a project log when I made the clock that you may find helpful if you decide to make one.

Just a concept I'm carving right now. I'm hoping it turns out since this is going to be a Christmas gift. I'll post updates on the project if anyone is interested.

Hey Guys........

I'm trying to figure out if the clock face that goes on the Wilderness Eagle clock will also fit this clock. Can someone help me out and let me know how to do this? I ordered a couple of extra clock faces when I made the Eagle clock and want to try and use one of the faces on this clock. Thanks !

Oops.. I thought that the pic would come in with my question. It was a clock that Router-Jim made a while back.

Hi Jerry,

The clock used for the Wilderness Eagle is a 5 7/8" diameter face and mounts into a 3¼" hole. As long as a clock design can provide for that, as well as the thickness of the clock mount body (about 1" thick), then those extra clocks you have on hand would work fine.
