Omg!!! I just love this. My husband just told me some one ask if he collected albums, his answer was yes. I had no idea that he had old, Old albums in the garage for 1 year. Can you believe it. At least 40!!!! I was like clocks for Christmas gifts. This is a excellent time for me to start making them. Thank you so much for the video. Great gift ideas! You work is amazing!!!

[@rachellewis3699]

An outstanding tutorial, can't wait to try this, can you use a pin vice to drill out the hole after, or what about keeping the hole open during the process? so for example, poking the hole after the paint pour and then again after the resin pour, it's difficult for me to use a drill as I am bedbound, (or do you have to use a drill anyway in the case the hole in the vinyl is too small for clock mechanism)? Thanks so much for such an inspiring and informative tutorial

[@liquidartebykriss550]

Rachel Lewis I think you would have to use a drill bit because the clock mechanism is a bit smaller than the record hole.

[@maryannekline1918]

Marvelous job you are very thorough and I am a beginner so thank you very much and I'm poor LOL I was wanting to ask you I ended up and bought polyurethane the quick-drying because I am not crazy about the spray anymore I want to make sure things last but I haven't used it yet I am asking you if I can. Or if I should use something else.please and thank you very much,Especially for explaining things so well. I must say though LOL that torch made me jerk backwards I don't think I've ever seen the fire shoot out like that on the other videos videos so kudos to you I would probably burn the house down..lol. I have just started to learn that I don't have to move fast and to slow down and mainly do not panic ..thanks again and God bless!

[@liquidartebykriss550]

Thank you! You can certainly try it, I would test on something small at first, some of those products can turn your project yellow :(. The torch takes some getting used to for sure!

Hi. I have painted my first 2 clocks and I am about to put mechanism on. The hands have a little lip on one side at the hole, do you put the lip downwards or facing upwards as I cannot tell from your video. Which I must admit the video of your LP clock is very informative and I didn't know where to start untill I watched this. I have had great fun doing the 2 clocks. Thank you very much

I haven't done any resin yet, but I'd varnish the clock. Would you put the numbers on first or varnish and then put the numbers on?

I think I would put the numbers on first Barbara.

Can you tell me how did you clean the back? And did you remove the piece of cork you had on the back?

I’m not finding that thick cork or the resin spreading tool at HL, Michael’s or Walmart. Found a set of 6 spreaders on Etsy for $6.00 but they want almost $9.00 to ship them🥺. Only one one Amazon & it was $9.00. Ridiculous.

I’m sorry, I had found it at HL. I also use my gloved hand or the popsicle stick I mix the resin with Kathy. You could use corckboard tiles for walls, maybe that would be easier to find. I have seen those at Walmart.

Michelle Hernandez this is a link to how I mix my paints kzbin.info/www/bejne/np27p3aGZdOSoJo. That will give you a general idea on paints and pouring medium. Then you just need something to pour on. I started on the cheap multi packs of canvases, albums are inexpensive at thrift stores, and ceramic tiles are fun to pour and inexpensive. 🙂
