Default A trio of fan clocks in the works

My recent thread showing a 993 fan clock that I made for The Moffat prompted a number of emails and PMs. As such, I currently have three similar fan clocks in 'production', as well as two wood versions in response to this clock I made for 'jdistefa'.

The following pics show clocks for the following Rennlisters (as well as the last two available fans in primer). Each fan takes nearly two hours to strip and clean before washing, drying, and priming. It takes at least an hour to cut & weld the steel before prepping each base for paint:
  • 944/951guy - silver fan & black base
  • BSL - silver fan & clear coated raw base
  • FisterD - black fan & clear coated raw base
The five clock mechanisms that I've purchased for this group are headed to North Hollywood Speedometer for the usual cleaning and bezel replacements this week.

Nice! I'm surprised Mike hasn't requested one in a nice, Smurftacular Blue.

Impressive work, Andreas. Any other ideas for the future where to "stick" a 993 clock?

Looking great! Can't believe how quickly you have gotten them to this point.
