Following his passion for clocks, he designed clocks that resemble Classic clocks, yet are simple enough to be built using basic woodworking tools that most woodworking hobbyists have on hand (table saw and router). The author’s instruction manuals are a result of a desire to help other woodworkers to have simple, easy-to-follow procedures for making heirloom-quality clocks for themselves, for family and friends, or just to sell for a profit.
