Wood magazine art deco clock

[Wayne Hendrix]

Wow, I have the wood to build three of them out of zebrawood and ash over Thanksgiving. We are giving them to several people for Christmas.

edit: My wife is curious what wood that is.

Thanks again Patrick... I am ordering 4 of the clocks this morning as my wife told me that if I did not include her.. SIL.. MIL I would be reading an obituary with my name at the top just after Xmas.

Good job on the clock and hope sales go well.

What material are you using for the Pizza paddle? I made one for LOML a couple of years ago from pine and finished with mineral oil. This morning I found that she had washed it and left it wet and it had curled up the sides about 1/2". Guess I will have to try to wet it and reverse the curl. I should have renewed the oil finish.

The pizza paddles are walnut with maple stripes. I made one previously with cherry and walnut.

The wood is cherry (base) and the center piece and wings are walnut. No stain or dye of any kind - I just hit the whole thing with Deft gloss spray poly and it came out beautiful. I guess the wings came from a lighter piece of walnut, but that just adds to the look. The center really has depth.
