I made two of these clocks, one each for my son and daughter which are in the process of finish polishing. I would like some details about the construction of your brass glazed cabinet please. I have been head-scratching wondering how to go about making one just like yours as I don't want a dome or anything that requires removal on a weekly basis. Andy Johnston

Hi Johnston There is some pictures and details of the construction at the NAWCC forum. (mb.nawcc.org/threads/skeleton-clock.146321/). The cabinet starts at post #112. If you need more information, send a email address and we can communicate. Wagner

Hello Wagner. I totally missed your help at the time as I was without a PC . Once all sorted out I honestly forgot the communication until today when I stumbled into your site again. I'm not very computer literate and I tried to find what you told me in the nawcc site but couldn't navigate through it to find anything. I have been involved in other projects and only now have I returned to the clocks to complete the final polishing and creating the cabinets. I had intended to machine grooves in square brass stock to hold the glass but looking closely you appear to have the glazing glued to the brass . Are your panes glass or polycarbonate? If they are glass, what adhesive did you use as it looks totally clear. I'm OK at making the base, it's just the framework I and hinges etc. I am interested in. The decorative parts I can also devise. I live in the county of Wiltshire in Southern England, UK and my email address is aplusf@btopenworld.com. I would appreciate some advice and maybe some close-up photos of the framework. I'm also going to make the brass rings like your around the dial, they do enhance the appearance. Any tips on how to make them would also be a help. Regards, Andy Johnston.

What would also be your favorite clock made by Wilding? Mine is his miniature tower clock.
