So much skills to learn on this small project

[@William_Kenny]

Great job tomislav I have a variety of clocks bought over the last few years thanks for the inspiration 😀

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Awsome,glad to hear that, hopefully you can make a video as well

[@toddlajiness]

That looks Amazing!!!

a small piece of dental floss can be useful when fitting tight pieces--it allows for the removal of the piece without damage

I'm an amateur wood turner but after watching your great turning I feel more amateurish. I'm about to subscribe so that I can learn more.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Please don't feel like that,its only practice and repetetive work, put in the hours and lot of sacrifice and it will worth it.... But don't forget to enjoy it... Thank you very much for watching and subscribeing

[@claudepotter7763]

Turned out great

[@richardwhisler5593]

Nice job! For pieces that won't be handled daily, I have used button shellac (for a warmer aged look or sanding sealer to keep the wood's original color) buff with cotton rag and heat from turning. Then topcoat with carnuba wax. The shellac or sanding sealer dries faster than the oil and the carnuba simulates a French polish. Then shine can be reduced if needed by using a softer wax or wax blend. I repaired antiques before becoming a turner so I had to learn to copy many finishes, so I probably have more varieties of finishes than most turners do.

Thank you for your advice.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you Richard for sharing your knowledge, really appriciate that and thanks as always for watching 😀

[@markleedham8137]

Love the way you let the wood talk to you on styling

[@bobostrowski8832]

Tomislav, that turned out really nice! You have given me just the right idea for what I need to do with a clock mechanism I have. I've had it laying around for a few years now but was never quite sure on a shape. Thanks!

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Glad to hear that ☺️,thank you very much

[@DavidBird-uu8km]

Very nice the grain of oak does stand out. Another great video thanks.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you

[@MarklTucson]

Excellent project and has given me an idea to replace the dime-store outdoor thermometer I have in my shop; hadn't thought of something like this before. I really like the way you decorated the back and made it look good.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you Mark,glad I gave you idea, go for it 😉

[@jorisdemoel3821]

A lovely thing that does indeed demonstrate many techniques, Thanks for sharing another fine video.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you Joris😀

[@David-Schenck]

A really nice design, like the way you recessed the gold rim. When you drilled the first hole to push it out, I immediately thought I would have drilled two and then straight after saw that is what you had to do! Thank you for all your videos, I like the way you explain what you are doing and don't have annoying music playing.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you very much, I'm over a music in my videos at this point 😉

[@jeanlong4285]

Very nice, I really like the way you added features to the back.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you,glad you liked it

[@SpunbyGreenJeans]

Nice small project eith lots of skill builders. Thank you for sharing!

Tomislav, for such a small piece looks very elegant! Take care, Wayne

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you Wayne ☺️

[@michaeldennison3548]

That is a great job. I love your attention to detail and your instructional commentary.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you very much 😀

[@StephanieElizabethMann]

Looks great. Great shine. I could see that in the cabin of a sailing boat.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you very much, indeed I should try to sell that to boat yard😉

[@johnnyb95678]

Turned out great and looks really good with the grain alignment too. Thank you!

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you Johnny ☺️

[@DancingFox6]

I learn so much from your videos. I haven’t been getting the best use of my tools. Every video you show something useful that helps. Thank you.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Awsome to hear that,thank you very much 😀

[@mnp1964]

Turned out Awesome nice job that wax piece looked like it was extremely hard

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you, carnauba wax are harder stuff then regular waxes☺️

[@garyjohnson9297]

A very beautiful wall mounting , the amount of the metal bezel protruding from tenon is perfect . How does it hang on wall ?

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you very much,I find a place for it on the shelf ,but to put it on the wall you can drill the hole and put metal strip across to catch the screw or nail head.

[@denisraulet]

Tomislav bonjour. Voilà un vrai cadeau pour nous apprentis tourneur ,on peut ainsi se faire la main .De plus c'est magnifique ,merci de penser à nous.👍

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

No problem, thank you very much for watching

Thank you very much

[@Pipejawood-Woodturning]

Realy nice looking termometer and nice work! Can you also tell me what system do you use for recording your videos, because it looks realy nice?

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you very much, I use Xiaomi 11t pro phone with deedy shotgun mic.... Sometimes I shot in 4k for high res details and sometimes just full hd Really simple as I don't have money or space for some profesional stuff

[@张程-p9e]

when you are trying the outside ring, you could flip the clock over and it's eaiser to take it out.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Yes I could,and I did do that at one point but I usually want to gouge the overall depth as well. Thank you for watching 😀

[@richardbufton3605]

Nice project to do Tomislav I will do that at some point

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you

[@MASI_forging]

Beautriful piece of wood 👏👏

Beautiful thermometer. Well done!

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thanks 😀

[@Cementhead48]

Do you have a link for the pen you use to sign your work? Thanks, such great videos and you teach so well.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

No I don't have but shortly I'll do a video on this topic so I'll find it and tell everything about it in video

[@jackthompson5092]

Beautiful Tomislav.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you very much

[@glennnord2605]

Nice job , ThankYou

[@pjseiber2774]

What type of oil do you use? Not the brand. Great job that is very very nice.❤

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Usually linseed oil or tung oil with citrus solvent.... I really like that but its not always avaible

[@_Egor_Egorov_]

Thanks for the video. It should be polished after 2 days, when the oil dries.

[@SweetSillyFun]

Fun project. Any suggestions on how to hang it on the wall?

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

There are few things to do, just a hole, bigger hole with some sort of plate across , little hooks that you can buy with finish nails.... A lot of options 😀😉

[@manuelbarreto6333]

Dear Sir, could you tell me the oil you use for your work and where I can buy the mechanism. My congratulations on your work. Thank you.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you very much, mechanisms are bought at Steinert woodworking in Germany and oil I used is from them called turning oil, its linseed oil and wax if not mistaken.

[@manuelbarreto6333]

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning gracias por su amabilidad

[@SteveWagner-re8bn]

Once again, Tomislav great job. Question what oil are you using prior to the wax?

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you 😀 Its Steinert woodturners oil, its I believe linseed oil with wax in it

[@vidarreiersen4820]

Very nise 👍

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you

[@jrk1666]

Have you ever tried friction polish ?

[@_Egor_Egorov_]

2 types of paste are used for polishing, brown, then white. For example, the manufacturer Luxi

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Nope, don't like that and usually I dont do higher shine stuff... for this it just looked right.

[@MichaelSheehy-q9f]

What oil are you using

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

I Usually now use tung oil with citrus solvent,or linseed oil

[@larryrumppe3720]

What kind of chuck is that.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

I use vicmark chucks

[@skember1]

Neat.

[@ianholderness5773]

Nice job. I like how it evolved

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thanks 😀

[@marijanzanoski9999]

Gospodin Tomislav, evo o tome sam komentiral. Od vas kao hrvata za očekivati bi bilo da za nas hrvata stavite titlove na hrvatskom. jeziku. A to me baš zanima kakav je to instrument.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Tesko je kontrolirati titlove i strahovito puno vremena, ali svi videi bi trebali imati titlove, ako gledate na kompu ili laptopu trebalo bi biti. Bit ce ovaj mjesec koji video i na hrvatskom, ali uzmite u obzir da kad napravim na hrvatskom nema neke gledanosti, a da bi napravio videe mora se i meni isplatiti zbog vremena i truda . Nije sve crno/bijelo. A opet velim za titlove treba puno vremena izdvojiti samo za jedan video tako da su oni automatski prevođeni , ne bas najbolje kvalitete ali nemam vremena svaki video svaku rijec prepravljati.

[@marijanzanoski9999]

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning pokušat ću i automatski prijevod. Hvala.

[@_Egor_Egorov_]

Thanks for the video. It should be polished after 2 days, when the oil dries.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

This method dries so fast, its so little oil and heat and friction start to dry it out... Especially with wax on top which melts with oil.... I have done like this so many times without any issue but if using oil off the lathe then sure, you have to wait to completely dry 😀
