Afternoon all,
As two -tone work seems to be a la mode again (Philly's chest of drawers, Roys tall clock, my Mackintosh wardrobe to name but three), I thought I'd add to the list with this little bandstand clock. It's from a design by Gary Rance. The timbers are Macassar Ebony and Rippled Sycamore. The movement is from Craft Supplies and the finish is Chestnut Shellac Sanding Sealer and Friction Polish
Better if I'd built it turned90 degrees (the ripples would show better). I'm sure a skilled turner could make it in a day and It's taken me several days, but never mind, I'm reasonably pleased with it.
Cheers
Steve
