I decided a couple months ago it was time to kill a pine tree & sacrifice it's lumber to the Lumber Gods. The end results are as follows. I used an atomic clock that once set to stupid daylight savings time I never have to reset it. It gets it's reading from Colorado. Installed a mirror in the waist with some glass shelves for some of Diane's glass pieces.



Just the little 3 LED puck light lit.

Wow!

Thanks guys. I appreciate the kind sentiments. I don't have a clue how many hours I have it in. I just worked on it when I felt good about being out there & took my time. I started it mid June. The only concept of time that I have on this is the 3 1/2hrs it took to stain it.

That turned out pretty nice Glen. I bet Diane loves it!

very nice...

Nice looking clock you made there.  Getting stain to be even with pine is a difficult task.  How tall is it?

Thanks again guys.

Diane would have liked it more had I put in a movement with chimes. But she's ok with the way it turned out. And pine is difficult to stain Jerry. That's why I used the gel stain. It finished out a tad shorter than I wanted at 6' 3 1/4".  Was aiming for the 6' 6" mark but came up a tad short. Such is life. 

Thanks Dale!!

This pic is much more realistic looking. The color is appropriate in this one.

Beautiful Job Glenn, Takes a lot of patience and talent to do something like that.

Put some bricks under it! I won't tell[emoji2] I bet you looked at that old tree many times over the yrs and never thought it would become a beautiful piece of furniture.
Well done![emoji122] [emoji122] [emoji122]

Thank you Carl. Woodworking is more enjoyable & relaxing than most of my other hobbies. I do OK at it.  I'm happy with the things I create most of the time.

WWWest already recommended the bricks. Damn hill billies anyhow!!    Besides,, there all under the vehicles in the front yard.

Not anymore. Those went to the scrap yard. Nobody around here wanted them. On the other hand there's a big market for dodge parts.
