Ross Wortham, Watsi Clock (ART & OBJECTS 2023)

This little mantle clock is made from American Black Walnut, beautiful figured bird’s eye Maple, and Rock Maple. While it's small, this little clock packs a punch when it comes to techniques, from shop sawn veneers, pre-steam bent laminations, vacuum pressed veneering, 5 different jigs, laser cut hands and face and some clever hidden joinery to allow it to stand the test of time. Many thanks to Paul Nicholson support while I made this during my time at the Sturt School for Wood in 2022.
