Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

This lovely beauty arrived today! Great to see the photo of the clock arrived safe jbuck. Some backstory - When I was a child living in Japan and Taiwan my father served as an enlisted soldier in the Air Force. When he came home the chevrons of enlisted rank on his duty sleeves obviously made an impression on my young brain - and today that clock design is known as the 'Sergeant of Time'. Over the years I've made less than 20 of the large Sergeant of Time clocks such as you have - so hang onto it and if you read someday about this famous woodworker who passed -well maybe it might be worth something.

Can't wait for 20,000 posts. Indeed - and I hope to see all of you at the next contest whenever that milestone occurs. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art |

My box arrived safely and was unwrapped... the packaging itself was a work of art. I have half a dozen ebay sellers I need you to run courses for. The box is exquisite. The woods are beautiful and the workmanship is impeccable. Now all that I need are a couple of raw $20 gold pieces or 8 Escudos to store in it.
