Think I've seen several other clocks made of coins and all sorts of other things too. I like the ones I've seen made from circular saw blades. There is a company in Wisconsin called Klockit that makes and sells all sorts of clock making items. They also have contests for the different clocks people make with thier items. I've purchased numerous movements from them and made some odd clocks too. Lots of fun. And with the musical movements and an additional speaker you can make somer really loud clocks.   10-07-2009, 03:21 PM   #5 (permalink) Drusus Pecunia non olet     Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Houston Posts: 2,922 My Mood: Pic is too small, cant see enough of it to have much of an opinion. __________________ Pecunia in arbotis non crescit   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Tags art, coins Would you like to support CoinTalk?
