Little things finished recently






A few new masterpieces.
Well, at least they're relatively new and finished.
They are a lidded box (perhaps jewellery box), with a clock insert inside the lid. The idea seemed good at the time, and it worked OK, but I'm not sure how practical it is.
A sort of pocket watch - a prototype - which worked OK, an d I'll make a modified version later to make it more compact: a spinning top: a plain lidded bowl with contrasting timbers: and a music box in black wattle. The music movement is in the lid, and makes the lid too heavy to be practical. But the black wattle is pretty.
Come to think of it, no masterpieces among them at all. But enough progress to make me relatively satisfied.

all the best,
