   WOW!!! I can honestly say,that clock caught my eye faster then anything I’ve seen posted in a few weeks. I love it! Are those trans yellow 1x1 tiles on the top door? I’d love to see some more detailed pics of it. How did you hang it?

The detail on the entire clock is so incredible I can’t even decide which part I love most to comment on it. Really an amazing MOC.

If you ever consider selling it, (not that I’d ever part with something that beautiful, but... if you decide to) please let me know. I would love to see that up close and have it in my home. :)

Aw, go on, you make me blush!

Thanks!

I’m not sure I know what you mean by the top door. If you are referencing the area where the cuckoo bird is, I just used one of those 2x3 plate peices that are like a trailer hitch type thing, where the top is rounded with a hole at the end. I just stuck it on the clock with a technic pin. And if that is what you are asking about, it is just regular solid yellow.

I don’t think I will be selling it anytime soon, but have thought of doing a copy, but would have a hard time sourcing some of the parts. The dangling pineconey things (love those technical terms) are built of LOTS of 2x2 round brown plates......

I will send you some more detailled pics if you would like, just as soon as the next time I get some pictues developed! Don’t let me forget!

Thanks,

Bill
