What do I google to find the clock bits?

Thanks :)

Quartz clock movement and hands.

[rockyracoon]

Thanks Mamya, I was thinking more about looking at a variety of sizes etc, some ornate hands maybe.

I'll google quartz clock movement and hands though, thanks again :)

[Mamyalynne]

You're welcome.

You don't need to google anything. If you follow the links from the page you'll end up at the clock kit sans frames at $44.95

Thank Jo, they're the sort of hands I want, but bigger.

Thanks Thechair, I'll investigate that website later.

Thanks Stuey, that's the sort of thing I'm looking for

[stuey]

You're welcome, rockyracoon. Quite often I'll order from them when my Canadian supplier doesn't have the parts that I want...They are very good.

If you're going to go ahead with this project, let me know on this thread and I'll give you some hints as to how to go about it.

[rockyracoon]

Thank Stuey, I'll definitely be annoying you for advice :)

It's a lovely thing, rocky. Good luck with it.

[rockyracoon]

Thanks Tilly

I like that, rocky. Let us know how you get on with it.

[Tilly2]

You will need to practise your calligraphy as well.

[rockyracoon]

Believe it or not I used to dabble with calligraphy many moons ago. Not sure I'd leave it up to me now though, a stencil will be the preferred option, if I use the phrase at all ;)

[rockyracoon]

Sorry Tony, when it's done, (which won't be for a long time) I'll post a pic.

[tonyav]

Well I'll look forward to seeing it, rocky.
