Finally got a few hours on the forge today. Mostly I just worked on reworking the frame. Much happier with the results that the original. The shoulders are formed much better and it should help the frame to be much more square. Its all a matter of experience.
For those long time readers on my blog, you will know that I frequently have to make the parts two or three times just because I still suck at this... :) Actually, I'm sure that I will be making many of the parts several times as I learn how to make this clock. I really can't see reworking the corner posts unless I damage them somehow so I am going to call them done. (knock on virtual wood)
A chronicle of my attempts to create an early clock using only traditional techniques.

You do realize that is how the good get even better, by making and re-making and re-making.... Very few are born skilled and talented.
...or modest...
