Having just watched the new video on these clocks it is interesting to hear how much your voiceover technique has progressed. Something we take for granted now. I haven't done much voiceover, but it makes me realise how much better your commentary is than mine.
This video was the PERFECT find for an upcoming clock I want to make from a slice of black walnut. I love the set up jigs or stops for routing out the square clock housing. This solved a couple of questions I had. 2 thumbs up...and again the final product is beautiful.
Nice project and build. Those old paling fences were a great supply for free wood. Funny how a fence decades old can be discarded and end up being made into really long lasting furniture and keepsakes. Thanks for the video.
You're so right. I've made many projects from it. Take a look at the end of this video to see a table i made from old fence posts ruclips.net/video/AidtqMSDhD4/видео.html.
Love The Clock and the miter sled. I plan on making both. I love how simple you make all of it look and the explanations are great.You Are Good Teacher. From Sterling Heights Michigan USA
Nice little clock. It has style. The jig for cutting the brass rod is perfect. I'm going to make that for sure. The way of flattening a piece of wood with the router is new for me. Thanks for sharing the video and showing your skills.
@@DownUnderWoodWorks No problem. 2020 was a strange and difficult year for many of us. I've just watched the video again. And I'll watch it many times. more. There are so many perfect details in it. Best wishes for 2021. Stay safe and healthy.
Nice work mate, 👍 Reading through the comments I have noticed a few people have suggested a push stick would be a safer method to perform this type of cut. I disagree! As long as the piece stays against the fence there should be no kickback. You have more control over this with your hand than a push stick. If you want to play it on the safe side, use a sled or mitre gauge.
I agree with you mate and I have discussed this more than once in the past. I am confident and competent to use all the machines in my workshop. I definitely know and feel I have more control with my hand than I do with a push stick. I work alone so have no distractions and anyone who has watched most of my videos will see that I do often use sleds, push blocks and push sticks (homemade gripper style). Cheers mate.
I think copper would look pretty special. You could corrode it (I think vinegar or lemon juice plus salt works), or polished clean. Set in a little, then cover the entire face with clear casting resin to preserve its clean or tarnished good looks. Of course, if you use casting resin, you can fill the holes with anything including powdered ironstone.
Dave, saw the photo and the video. Awesome mate. They say imitation is the greatest compliment. It was nice to see one of my projects made by someone else.
Matt I bought the mechanisms from www.jknowles.com.au/shop/home.php as I always have but I wasn't happy with the last lot as they have changed the brand they stock. I prefer Takane brand mechanisms.
I buy them online. in Australia we have a few suppliers. I'm sure they're also easily available in your part of the world. there's always eBay as well.
Hi Tim. Not sure what part of the world you're in but I buy my mechanisms locally. I prefer the Takane brand movements and i get them from Timberbits.com
Hi mate, Awesome seeiing another Aussie at the DIY on the Tube, Check out DIY For Knuckleheads ( another Aussie bloke) as well as that , you love your Jigs .... well have a look at Izzy Swan on the Tube as he is a jig master :) love ya work mate
The way you use your tools is really creative. Im not used to seeing such enginuity from folks with such fancy tools! Well done and very useful.
Thank you very much Edward

Thanks very much mate. I'd be the first to say that my technique all around has improved greatly from the cringe early days of YT :-)
Excellent! I love how this is a project that doesn't require a lot of tools and has some clever jigs.
Thats true mate, its a good weekend project I think.
- Another very nice projects with VERY clever, practical support jigs. Thanx 4 sharing.
No problem, thank you for watching and commenting
I just learned so many tricks (jigs) to making projects easier all in one video. Thanks!
Thats awesome, thanks.

Thank you very much mate, glad it helped. All the best with your clock build.
Loved this too mate. Love your problem solving!
Thank you very much David. I'm about to release a video where i make these clocks again but this time using my much 'fancier' tools
Great job! Makes me want to try it myself. You also explained all your jigs and tips very well. Thanks for the ideas.
No worries Richard, glad to have inspired you mate.
Great work and presentation.
I love the jig for cutting the brass, so simple yet so effective.
Have a good one mate.
Thanks very much. Cheers mate.

Thanks very much George.
Really enjoyed this project, looking forward to more this year!
Thank you John.
I always learn something from your videos.
Glad to hear that Ronald, thanks.
Nice build, well done mate
Thanks very much Ivan
@@DownUnderWoodWorks All good, mate
This is perfection sir - love how clean and detailed your work is.
Thank you very much Victor.
Looks fantastic! thanks so much for explaining each step clearly - really helpful for a beginner woodworker like myself :)
Thank you very much for your comment. Apologies for the late reply but I'm trying to clear my "Comments I haven't responded to" list.
many thanks , you are very creative,
Thank you very much John
I’ve struggled to remove the space for the clock before - but I’ll be used the four stop idea on my router table - thanks so much for sharing 👍. 🌲🦊🌲
No problem, glad it was of some help. good luck with it.
Well done. I really like the creativity behind the rod cutting jig
Thanks very much Rick.
Great Video and Build, nice effect and idea as well with those 12 brass inserts. Well Done.
TC, Barry (ENG)
Thanks very much Barry.
Great video mate! I will have to give this a go. cheers from Canada.
Thanks mate, good luck with it.
Great job mate and l LOVE that router jig!! Well done.
Thanks very much Shane, good to see a fellow aussie YT woodworker.
Great simple clock I'd like to know where you got the brass hands from. Clever jig for cutting the 12 copper pieces as well.
hey mate, thanks very much. the clock hands are bought from wherever you buy your clock mechanisms
Love it I would make this next time one of the big
I never thought of making it bigger
Came out very beautiful! Good work
Thanks very much Bill. Just had a look at your channel. Great stuff mate.
DownUnderWoodWorks Thank you very much

Beautiful clock!
Thank you very much.
Great Job
Thank you
This is a superb project and very well explained IMO.
Please can I ask what the dimensions of the square face are.
Thank you.
Thank you very much Richard. The clocks were about 120-130mm square
I love this clock
Glad to hear that mate
genius jigs mate.
+Kay Ray Thanks very much Kay Ray.
You've inspired me.
Glad to hear it mate.
Great project, did you use an adhesive to hold the brass rob in?
Thanks Casper. The rods are just a friction fit
Nice work mate, 👍

yeah mate i like the copper option. i had thought of it but need to find where to buy copper rod.
Wow I really like that mate.
Thanks very much Dave. They're not difficult to make and are great gifts.
Yeah, where might a Pomm get some brass rod ?
It should be available from a metal supplier. Using dowels is a good alternative in a contrasting timber like pine.
I made one, can't share photos here though, @dave6854 on instagram
Dave, saw the photo and the video. Awesome mate. They say imitation is the greatest compliment. It was nice to see one of my projects made by someone else.
Bello .. Minimal .. ottimo design ..
Grazie, molto apprezzato Luca.
Cool I would make it and I would love it if I put it as an alarm clock and they put some noise forward to make or just to be a wall clock
great idea Jose
too much perfection going on here
:-) Thanks.
Desde Palmira Colombia 😍🤗👍😲
Thanks Jose, from Sydney Australia
Really nice. Where did you buy the clock mechanism and is it keeping good time?
Matt I bought the mechanisms from www.jknowles.com.au/shop/home.php as I always have but I wasn't happy with the last lot as they have changed the brand they stock. I prefer Takane brand mechanisms.
Cool cool cool I love it. 😢
