Into Woodworking? Build A Grandfather Clock!

If you are into woodworking,  making a Grandfather Clock may very well be your next project.   If not,  why not?    How satisfying that would be.

For years I have been fascinated by them.   Quite some time ago my parents and I visited a very, very large antique shop.   This particular shop had so many Grandfather Clocks that I would hesitate to even try to guess how many there were.    They had all been imported from Europe,   and there were numerous designs and styles.   Perhaps this is where I first became fascinated and intrigued with them.

Sometime after that my parents had a Grandfather Clock made for them by an Amish man.   When my parents died,  I inherited this clock.   What a beautiful addition it has made to my home.

If you think these clocks are neat to have in your living room,  why not consider making your own?   Plans are readily available.
