When I started this clock making venture in 2006 I knew very little about horology, owned only a few tools and had very rudimentary woodworking skills. I did have a mission oriented mentality, a degree in Fine Art and a Masters degree in Mathematics! My goal was to build a wooden wheels clock like the one I saw 25 years earlier during a museum visit while on honeymoon with my newlywed wife. I told her then, "Someday I will build you a wooden clock like that one." Twenty-five years later and a wake-up call, plus 9 months of 'self training,' that day arrived! Don't forget to view the M3 clock which was the result and the mission goal.
