Clock Bracket
Posted: Sun Feb 08, 2009 1:42 pm
I`ve given a few other members some of the correct backing foam that is fixed to the clock bracket and thought some of you may be interested to see how I did mine.
Starting with my freshly painted bracket.......
And freshly rebuilt clocks........
I made some templates out of card and checked that they fitted correctly.
I then drew the shape onto the foam.....
And cut out all 4
I used a hydraulic fitting size 12L and hammered it onto a block of wood to make the circular cut out.
Until I ended up with all 4. You will notice that one has a semicircular piece cut out on the edge. I do not know why this is there but followed the shape anyway.
I made sure that they fitted the backs of the clocks
Before gluing them into place
And finally the worst part...............waiting 24 hours for the glue to properly cure.
