Wanted to answer a quick question about the dowel for the Carriage Clock. Thanks Jill for asking for better clarification.
I mentioned the 1/2-inch half round dowel in yesterday's post. For the tutorial, I used a 1/2-inch dowel for the Carriage Clock. A suggestion was made to use a 1/2-inch half round, I guess trim piece would be the appropriate term as an option.
A 1/2-inch half round would be just like the 1/2-inch dowel but split in half. It looks like this....
This would be a bit easier to cut, possibly with some of Tim Holtz shears and then you could sand the ends down with a sanding block.
Hope this helps!
Thanks Again Y'all!

Thanks for the explaination - but what we really want to know is "what's the recipe today Jim"?! (There used to be an old DJ called Jimmy Young here in the UK and I seem to remember he had a cookery slot each day and this was one of his catch phrases). See - you find out all sorts of useless information when you invite our comments!!!
ReplyDeleteI remember him too! (Living in the US for over 20 years now, but love any reminders of the UK!) Thanks....TTFN!
