My old wall clock in the woodshop “bit the dust”. I had an old 14" scrap blade, so I made a new clock and now I can saw what time it is.

Nice, but I don't want to know what time it is when I'm in my shop! It's where I go to forget about time for a while.

very nice. My dad and my Grandfather both had the old Sears and Roebuck sawblade clock on their office walls. Gives me an idea to use the stack of old blades I have on my bench right now!

Like a fine sundial, shop saw clocks must have a motto. "I saw the past ,point to the present ,and turn toward the future"
is my own favorite.

I want to know when it's time for supper. Oh, wait, maybe I don't need a clock. I always get a personal call from the chef.Originally Posted by Scott Brader

I made an analog one like this out of a fired blade and brake I got from a Rockler SawStop demo. The main clock however is a large digital atomic one that I really like. Its not made anymore but its similar to this one: LINK

Saw is past tense. I like to always work in the present and see how much longer I can stay in the shop. Great looking timepiece in any case.
