Are you wondering how to make a grandfather clock? It would look great do you agree? Sat there elegantly ticking in your house. Imagine peoples faces when you invite them around and they comment on the masterpiece sat against the wall. You could tell them the story of how you came about it. Would you make it alone or with your family? It would be a great idea for a bonding session with your son or father and you would have that memory to look back at every time you see the clock.
So now the question is how to make a grand father clock. Well firstly you have to acknowledge how experienced you are at wood work. If you are a total rookie then that is fine also and you will learn so much in the process that can help you in life and make you a well rounded person. You will have to go for a kit that is partially put together for your benefit already. This is because the advanced kit involves a lot of advanced woodwork that may be too hard for you. This is still great though and there are lots of things that you can still put together. You may even want to come back and do an advanced one later once you see how fun it could be and your friends are marvelling at your timepiece.
For the advanced wood workers out there, there are the more challenging kits which involve pendulum, hinges etc which can take longer and be really fulfilling when you stand up, wipe your brow and are amazed at what you have just created.
Do you think it will be dear? So did I. You can make your own for much cheaper than those in shops. People will have a new found level of respect for you when they realise that you can actually build a clock from seemingly nothing.
