A masterpiece of engineering in that it is a beautifully designed,
laser-cut, all-wooden clock, including the gears.
It is called the "Gift Clock"
because of a unique feature! There
is a special space on the clock for personalization. A Brass Plaque,
photo, hand-painted picture or other personal item may be added to the
clock. Anything that is near and dear to the person for whom the clock
is being made will just make the gift that much better.
The wood used for this kit is
hand-selected, imported, Russian, multi-ply Baltic Birch that is kiln dried
. . . the same wood used in all the Clock Mechanics clock
kits. It finishes absolutely beautifully!
The "Gift Clock," like other
Clock Mechanics clock kits,
keeps perfect time! Quality and Care has been put into these premier cock
kits to insure that it will be an heirloom in your family!
The clock in the photo was
finished with a Rosewood stain and then sprayed with three coats of
Polyurethane. It is also very beautiful when finished in the "lighter"
colors.
A Laser-Cut
Clock!
Woodworking has
never been easier! The Gift Clock Kit is laser-cut for the ultimate in
accuracy. Everyone knows, modern lasers are dead-on accurate. The more
accurately the parts fit on a clock, the better the clock runs. The average
woodworker can certainly build The Gift Clock from scratch and
achieve this accuracy, but this requires some skill and patience. A person
assembling a laser-cut wood-clock can virtually bypass these old-fashioned
virtues! (Well, almost, some patience is needed to assemble any kind of
kit!)
Using laser technology, the gears and various parts of a wood clock fit very
nicely thus reducing friction. Friction is the enemy of any mechanical
device. Clocks are no exception. There has never been anything
invented to equal the significance of modern laser technology when it comes
to being able to use wood for clock building.
Sig Industries, Montezuma, Iowa,
does a wonderful job of cutting the clock parts with state-of-the-art laser
technology! Airplane model-kits by Sig Industries are sold worldwide!
