Cat Clock

[Mike Minto]

Pardon the clutter; I'm running out of places to photograph my work (I need a photo box, I know). This is my first clock, a very simple silhouette of a cat. The wood is Spanish Cedar, with a couple of coats of Danish Oil. I based it on a clock I saw on the 'Net (but they had tails). Can you see the mouse on the second hand? I think that's hilarious. About 13" tall.

Nice job, Mike, and a nice collage of your various projects!! Cute mouse, BTW!

[Norman Pyles]

That's really cute.

Interesting build Mike. I see someone is into cats... need any currently?

cats are like tools - you can never have too many (five, currently).

You have five and they all get along? We have 4, 2 male & 2 females all neutered. The two females tolerate one another--sorta.

I really like the clock, Mike. The mouse hand is so cute! Where did you get it? I may have to make a cat clock myself (although cat items are forbidden at my house)!

Thanks for the info, Mike. Yeah, I just received the notification about the PM's. I took care of it.

Not a big cat fan here but I like your project. When I read the title I was half expecting the classic clock with the cats tail swinging. I was intriqued how did he build that! ?
