Members boma Posted February 12, 2015 Author Members Report Posted February 12, 2015 Excellent work, I really like it! I think that brass hardware or "vintage" (worn) look steel could help the final look. just my thought p.s.: a question: what swivel knife is that? Thanks Ash！ I agree with you so much. I did not spend enough time to find such kind of hardware.WIsh can get some in the future. The swivel knife was Elle,Japan brand,with ceramic head. Quote

Contributing Member JLSleather Posted February 12, 2015 Contributing Member Report Posted February 12, 2015 Neat idea -- and very nicely done. I don't speak a bit of Chinese, but was able to follow your instruction easily. NICE! Quote "Observation is 9/10 of the law."

I think it's a very unique idea how you mounted the clock. Quote There are always possibilities....

Thor Posted February 14, 2015 Report Posted February 14, 2015 I sure like it a lot and that's why I compiled your step-by-step guide to this PDF. Hope you don't mind. Sorry, I had to compress the pictures or it wouldn't let me upload the file. If one wants to see them larger, please review them on the first page of this thread. I didn't comment all too much as I didn't see any need. We all get what he wanted to get across. Guess the only question I have for you is, what product have you been using for antiquing and if you'd like to ad the stamp numbers I could include them to the PDF file.
