How to make a Pallet Wood Clock.

Pallet Wood Clock- Pallet Wood Challenge
This was such a simple project in execution but was a lot of fun. I am not a big fan of pallets wood usually. It tends to be dry and brittle and nearly just plain crappy wood. I know some folks have gotten lucky and found some nice wood in them from time to time.
This wood is primarily pine and the only power tool I used on them was a jig saw and sanders.
This is my first attempt at a distressed finish. I have watched many you tube creators do it much better than I did. The numbers I bought off eBay some time back for a few $$ I don’t recall exact price but they were very reasonable. I got the clock components online and was sure to use a “high torque” mechanism for these large hands of the clock.
Thanks for watching and best of luck with your project!

    nice clock Chris. when i need to make a circle for my clocks i use a straight board and screw my router to the end with a straight bit in it and measure the diameter of the circle and screw it into the wood, plundge my router bit in about 1/4" and spin it around lowering my bit till I'm throw the wood

    Yes another great option... To be honest with their wood I preferred the minimum of my tools go near it! :) I always try to be sure there are no nails left but seems liek I always find one with a planner blade or something so I was trying to keep that to a minimum. The method you speak of is an excellent way to do it. Thanks for watching! Chris
