Gorgeous!Rooting through my pile of Ivy I grabbed a fairly big piece and stuck it between centres, seems it wanted to be a clock

Thank you, shame only the second hand is working, tried a few batteries to be sure but no movement from the hour and minute hands

More snowmen for the paint kits today, got 50 done now so to change it up a bit I did a few a little differently. Will start making up the sets next week, hopefully the paint pots and brushes will come soon.

Hi Stig, sorry but I have a 'pet hate' for clocks (or any time-pieces) that don't have numbers (LOL)! I do love that Ivy of yours though, spalting and some grain. My Ivy was quite plain. I seem to spend a great deal of my time cutting Ivy that has wrapped around trees, in order to enable the tree to grow. My attempt at a Clock was done a few years ago using recycled Decking; glued and joined with 'biscuits', with a bit of Pyrography thrown in. Although this clock is on our lounge wall, I rarely bother to put a battery into it!(LOL)

Had it been a bigger piece I'd probably add numbers/markers but it's too small and not fully round so would detract from the grain, I have one more mechanism but need to check it's working before putting time into making another.
With numbers!!!
