Well a while ago, I asked about how to finish or preserve a log end cut for a clock face.
And I got all kinds of advice.
Thanks for everything that was posted.
Here is what they were hoping to do:
And another shot of the same thing:
The nice young couple who contacted me about this, sent me these two photos so that I could see what they were trying to do.
As a follow up, Friday, when I returned to my mother's house out in front of the sawmill yard, there was a basket on the back steps, which appeared to be a fruit basket dropped off by a delivery man.
I picked it up and took it into the house.
I started to open it and my mother, let into me about opening up her fruit basket that was left on her steps. I told her that the card in the basket said "thanks Jim" and that it was from two people but I wasn't sure exactly who these two people were. And the note said this is the results so far......
Well it wasn't a fruit basket, it had all kinds of cheeses, some crackers and several different types of smoked sausage which were very good I might add. And I was trying to figure out what these had to do with the "results so far"......
Then in the basket I found two photos:
And it then became clear to me that the names on the card were from the nice young couple that had purchased the clock face stock from me for their "gift" project.
I think they look good, or this one looks good.
And at first I thought that the line across the face of the clock was a crack.
But with closer examination here in the computer, I think it's a straight line recessed into the clock face, but I'm not totally sure.
I hope it's not a crack, and that their project has been completed and it will hand nicely in their friends home for many years.
We will see.....
Just an update to let you know what happened.
Happy new year to all....
