In this video, I demonstrate the process of making a large wall clock.
While visiting my good friend, former bank colleague and at the same time the godfather of my little son David over New Year holidays, I noticed that this interior item would suit his living room. Due to quarantine, I postponed this trip to another city for a long time and I am glad that our families could spend a few wonderful days together.
For the base of the watch I chose a piece of an old oak board. I'm glad that there is an epoxy resin that is able to soak and bond it all well, although I struggled with air bubbles for a long time. For marking, I used a rotary table for the milling machine and the milling machine itself for milling. For me, this is a new experience as I used processes I had never worked with: working with the rotary table, experimenting with white pigment and oak and epoxy polishing.
I hope my friend will like my gift, which his three-year-old godson also contributed by inserting the hands of the clock. I think he will appreciate it! ;)
Thank you all for watching and stay safe.
