This class will take 1.5-2hrs. No experience required. Instructor: David Robertson Bio: I grew up doing woodwork with my father and brother and have built cabinets, furniture, toys, clocks etc, etc. My clock-making has gradually progressed from "can I make something that ticks?" to "how accurate can I make this?". I'd love to share some of the things that I have learned and perhaps point you towards making your own clocks. I'm also a keen gardener and when I'm not clock-making, I like to do the Jackson things - hike, bike, ski, dog stuff & kid stuff.
