Great clocks

I made three clocks from this book for my daughters' Christmas presents. The book has good detailed plans. There were a few minor issues to figure out but if you are a wood worker they are easily solved. There are enough details to allow you to modify a design to suit your own tastes. Good book for a clock builder. These were my first clocks so if I can do it anyone can.

informative

Instructions are comprehensive and presented in logical sequence. Makes it possible to actually create your own clock.
