Photo Essay: Making a Clock!

So our deadlines are looming along with the end of the degree and, to go with it, the first ever BA (Hons) Horology graduate show. (shameless plug: June 15-18; see you there)

Our major project in third year is to make our own clocks to the designs we create in second year. This is without a doubt the biggest part of the course, and as well as carrying a very large percentage of the final marks, acts in a way as a very physical representation of our skills. Because of this it's not something to be taken lightly!

My own clock is nearly complete, and I have been going through pictures of the build in order to write the supporting text for the hand-in. I thought I'd share the images with you, explaining what's going on.
