This clock uses a 2 3/4" insert designed for a 2 3/8" hole. The hole is best cut with a 2 3/8" forstner bit but can easily be cut with your scroll saw. Just slightly under-cut the hole so you get a nice snug fit when you insert the clock.
I have used multiple thicknesses of wood for this project. The body is 1" thick. The top is 1/2" thick as is the bottom. The extra piece on the bottom is 1/4" thick as is the columns. The fleur-de-lis is cut from 1/8" thick contrasting wood.
The wood I used for this clock is Peruvian Walnut and Maple.
Sorry things have been kind of slow on the blog the last few days. I have been a little under the weather and just did not have the energy to get in front of the computer. I seem to be feeling better today so I'll try to get caught up on email as soon as I can.

Think Safety
Remember to keep the safety of yourself and others in your work shop in your thoughts at all times. Always wear eye and ear protection. Follow all the manufactures warnings that came with your power tools. If I demonstrate something on this web site that you don't feel is safe, don't do it. Your safety is your responsibility. Fingers are handy things, try to keep all of them.
