It’s not quite a clock yet, because I miscalculated the shaft length by a hair and need to order a different movement. Also I’m a little worried about whether the hands are going to be too hard to see because of the busyness of the design…guess I’ll burn that bridge when I get to it! :wink:

The layers are (back to front) mahogany-stained Baltic birch, PG walnut ply (lightly sanded and sprayed with laquer because the finish wasn’t quite “finished” enough to make me happy), PG cherry ply, gold mirrored acrylic, PG maple, and PG black acrylic.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that it’s 12' in diameter. The BB layer is pieced together so I could fit it on the bed.
