Many of you love unusual interior items, and especially various types of watches.

Manufacturing process.
So, for starters, the master cuts a round blank on a band saw.
Drills a hole in its center, and fixes it in a lathe.
Turns the outer perimeter around the entire circumference.
Then aligns the plane of the disk on both sides.
Using an orbital machine polishes surfaces.
Next, you need to make markings in the form of rings, and radial lines, repeating them as on the original board.
The master makes a thin groove of the rings on the disk with a cutter, and then cauterizes with the corner of the playing card.
Sets the apparatus for burning wood, aligns the center of its tip. Now radial lines are burned.
The next stage of the sector of the board is painted with a black marker.
The remaining sections are painted in red and green.
Using a stencil, the numbers are applied to the outer ring of the disk, they will have a light gray color.
The master needs to mark the contour of the clockwork, and mill the groove for it with a hand mill.
It remains to install the arrows in their places, and the product is ready!
By the way, this watch is perfect for hanging from the inside of the door of your office. Then you can immediately remove the plate "do not enter without knocking!" I personally checked - the effect is just great!
Thanks to the author for the idea of simple, but very authentic watches!
All good mood, good luck, and interesting ideas!
