A while ago I made clocks for my family. Different style for each one and was inspired on a couple by other clocks I had seen done. I wouldn’t normally copy someone’s products but I figured since it was going to family as a gift that would be fine.
My mom’s clock was made out of Flame Birch and Walnut. I did the inlays using a plug cutter and a forstner bit.
My dad’s clock is Mahogany and Flame Birch. Same strategy for the inlays and I carved out the outer piece with a router.
My brother’s clock is just Flame Birch that I cut out on a band-saw.
The clock motions were bought off of Amazon for like $5 each. Well worth it and they work pretty well.
