A clock is a precision mechanical instrument containing many
slowly moving parts. ere are over a hundred points of contact
where friction works to bring it to a stop.
Take your time assembling this kit, and pay attention to the
details. Great pains have been taken to cra these instructions
to ensure your success. If there are any steps that seem unclear,
please let us know.
Before you begin, check that there are no missing or damaged
pieces in the kit. A parts list is provided to help identify each

2. The kit also contains a number of other components
needed to complete the clock.

3. The tools needed to assemble this kit are:
• Razor saw (42 teeth per inch)
• Scissors

The supplies needed to complete the kit are:
• Two or three sheets of good quality, ne grit (220) sandpaper

• Wood glue (also called carpenter’s or PVA glue)
• One pack (6000 count) BBs (Daisy or Crosman)
• Block of scrap wood (optional)

AFTER
BEFORE
4. Using 220 grit sandpaper, sand both faces of each part to
remove blemishes and residue left by the laser cutting
process. For large pieces, use a sanding block, which can
be as simple as a piece of scrap wood with sandpaper
wrapped around it.

5. For small pieces, lay the sandpaper at and move the
part against it. Take care not to remove any laser etched
marks. Taking a little extra care and patience to prepare
each piece will make a huge impact on the appearance of
the completed kit.

6. To sand holes and smaller openings, tear a small strip
of sandpaper and tightly roll it into a cone shape small
enough to t. Work the sandpaper into the opening,
twirling it as it is moved in and out.

7. To sand gear teeth, fold a strip of sandpaper twice, and
sand each tooth across the thickness of the material.
Work around the rim of the gear rst working on one side
of each tooth, then ip the gear over, and sand the other
side.
Take care to remove only enough material to expose the
natural color of the material.

8. The dark edge left by the laser cutting process is caused
by natural resins in the material. It does not bond well
with glue.
The instructions will include diagrams indicating which
edges need to be sanded.
Lightly sand the highlighted edges to expose the material
beneath. Don’t forget that holes need to be sanded too!
