Default Gappy - it's your time...
Following closely on the heels of this thread, as well as this one, I've completed and shipped another one-off clock for our very own Gappy (tjangi).

Similar in construction to the one I created for Matt, I once again used a special block of Indonesian Amboyna wood, which I then cut and finished into a 5" x 5" square. This amazing wood allows for a very smooth finish and feels as if it has the structural integrity of ductile iron. Cutting it can be a challenge...

In addition, this clock features an illuminated dial which can be switched on via a second pushbutton on the rear.

All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed this build and look forward to completing the four others patiently sitting in queue.

Enjoy!



























Andreas

Soon, my friend, soon. Pelican had to order my mounting ring, which is taking a bit.
