This was my first wooden-gear clock; my version of the famous "Thomas Clock";
...of course, with my own interpretation.
I built this clock with a hand coping saw, some files and sandpaper. I didn't even have a scrollsaw yet. I figured, "If they could do this a hundred years ago, so could I."
Totally encouraged by my success, I couldn't stop now. And, I wasn't going to build "the same old thing" again, to someone else's plans...

(and, yeah, I know it's misspelled; but it was already cut out and glued, long before my school-teacher sister-in-law pointed this out.)
