Greetings,
As you may have seen on a couple of these threads I manufacture clocks made from 3mm sheet aluminium.
My latest ones have been the Fokker Dr.1 and Nieuport 11.
At present, I am doing a Honda CBR600 motorcycle clock for a client which will anodised for a wonderful finish.
These are all computer designed and CNC manufactured for the precise finish. I fit them with analogue clocks, these being a lot more stylish than the digital type.
Any aircraft design is possible, whether it be a Herk, a Huey or a Skyhawk !!
So, I can do a special deal for the Forum members here, don't hesitate to drop me a PM or email me at
sales@nudemetalz.co.nz
Cheers,
Chris.

Not quite, I meant the Ajax that served at the River Plate   Not sure where the clock would go though? |

I guess you can make anything into a clock? I'll give it some thought, but definitely keen on an aeroplane clock for myself, the ship is an idea for my old man. I'll PM you later. Cheers for the idea! How long do you need to make one?

Cheers for the idea! How long do you need to make one? Ah okay...I guess Ajax was used in many ships . About 1 week from start of design to CNC'ing and finish (paint, polish or better still anodise). And...umm...Beagle,..who's Michelle? Is that an aircraft or a lovely lady? |

Michelle would be easy to set up Beags ;D Michelle was the girl in beag's 5th form who did EVERYTHING, so he thought it would make a great name for the Air Force's new Italian A109 helicopter

Don't forget Peoples !!! Xmas is looming and I can do that awesome present out of sheet aluminium for a clock, whether it be a Spitfire, Mustang or even a warship . I have now got a good contact for anodising, just to make it look even better. PM me if you're keen. I can show you a couple of clocks I've recently done, however as one of them is a Christmas present, I can't display it here for obvious reasons |
