 So this is one of these, um, chisels. It's called a flanger, um, dongle. Do I have any broccoli in my teeth? No. You can't beat a flanger, donger. You're too friendly to her. Pretty large. Oh, David, this is a fine vintage. Then come on over and have a coffee. That's so irritatingly cute, or what are you, charismaticly, challenging? You're charmingly useless. So one of Art Reson's favorite, um, places to go is Exotic Woods, and last time we went there we saw this beautiful piece of wood, and Dave immediately thought this would be amazing for a clock. I'm not going to teach my kids how to use this type of clock. You're not lying. Why would you? That's like not teaching them cursive handwriting. I don't know. I don't know how I feel about that. Hey, times change. What used to be before a cursive? Well, what used to be, like, writing's just evolved. But it's not even writing. Times change. Yeah. Oh, pun. Speaking, it's time to start. Oh. Get it? I do. Okay, so we're so excited to get going on this now. Why don't we go through that process first, and then we can, you can, as we go. You can chime in on the tool. Hey, that's two in, like, 30 seconds. Oh, can I show, let me grab one thing, actually. I'll show you where this whole idea came from. It's a cool story. Time's money, Dave. Huh? So my uncle, my mom's youngest brother made this, and I remember the kid looking at it, and I always wondered how he did that. Yeah. Isn't that cool? And I loved this. And then he passed away, and so I ended up getting this because I loved it so much. And then so I saw this, and I remembered this clock. So we're going to make this a clock, too. He made it in jail, actually, in Saskatchewan. Wow. Yeah, he pushed too many cows over. No, he was selling drugs. Oh. He was the best guy. Let's get going. What's the first step then? Okay. So the first step is we are going to drill a hole in the center. We've marked out our face. I really like this placement. And we are going to drill a hole through the center. The point of that is to find the center on the back so we can sink in our, what is this? This is the mechanism for the clock, right? Yeah, yeah. So in order to do this, we're going to drill in four holes. Yep, we're going to use our trusted drill press here. And this thing's good because we can actually, while we're drilling into the back to make the cavity where this will sit, with the drill press, you can actually make your drill stop at a certain point. So look, every time it won't go any lower than that. So why that is good, if we're going to drill through this wood, we don't want the hole in the back, the cavity in the back to go all the way through because then that would ruin the whole thing. So just make sure that we drill just to the depth that we need. Okay, so once we have our piece centered and synced in, then we're going to have this little bit sticking out the top. And then we take our hands. Our hands, yeah. And then they're too long, as you can see. So we're going to cut them down. And we're also just going to sand them so they're kind of a, you know, a little more industrial looking, I guess. Yeah, like a raw material or something. Yeah, rather than what? These are just tin snips. Just we'll snip those really quick. A quick snip snip, right? Change your life forever. All right, once we have our hands to the right length, then we will find the exact points. We're just going to put four nice little markers. We have this square chisel that's used for woodworking. See the tip of that? So instead of, you know, putting numbers on to mark all the points here, keep it really clean and simple and kind of go with that industrial look, we're going to have four squares here. And we're going to carve those squares out with the square chisel. And then we're going to fill it with silver, right? We're talking about silver, resin tint. Resin tint, yeah. So that is going to look awesome. And then I guess it's sand the heck out of it. And then resin the heck out of it. Resin the heck out of it and assemble it and then put it on a mantle. And admire it. Yeah, so if your hands are ready, let's hour on over to... Wow. Clock. Watch out. Dave's on fire. Oh, watch out. Was that a pun on purpose? That was a pun on purpose. Oh my goodness. Uh-oh. We have a serious problem. This is rather alarming. Oh, no. Oh, this is just, there's not enough, you know. Clearance. Clearance. Do we just put the hole somewhere else or do we? Okay. Anyways, this is what all of our videos are. Yep. It's problem solving. Trouble shooting, yeah. Yeah, that's the creative process. If it was easy then, you know, you'd buy a main. You'll go buy a pre-made kit where it tells you all the steps. Wipes your butt for you. Okay, three, two, one and we're drilling. So all I'm doing here is making a guide hole. This is a guide hole. Put this over top and that will start the hole so that we're not on the angle, right? We're not doing like that. We're not doing like that. Is it some stability too? You're so smart. Yeah, so and that's very important because of this, right? That's got to stick out perfectly straight. Otherwise, you know what they say, you're behind the times. Love this. Thanks for laughing. All right, there's no time like the present. And it begins. You got to think of some more puns. Okay. All right, tick-tock. Let's go. Is that good? Fun? Hey, guys, welcome back to our clock project here. So last time, Dave and I decided where we're going to put the face of our clock and we got started drilling the hole all the way through to the back. And that's where the body of our clock mechanism is going to go. So, to continue. To continue, I think it's time to tick on the next part. So, the next thing we have to do is we want to have this clock mechanism stick up only that tiny bit over the top. So, I'm just eyeballing it from the side. Joanne, if you could just draw a line along the base of that, please. Why did we draw that line? So, we know exactly how far down to drill so that we can sink this to the right height. So, we need to cut out a big piece in the back that is this shape, right? So, I'm just going to roughly draw this shape. We'll make it bigger so that we can get our fingers in there. And then, this is a Faustner bit. So, it's for making nice circle holes. I'm just trying to understand. There it is. So, it's very time consuming, Dave. You know, it's right. There we go. Oh, that was a joke! So, we know exactly where or how far down we need to drill. And the reason for that is because when this clock mechanism sits in there, the tip is going to protrude at the front. And this little tip here is where our minute and our hour hands here are going to sit. So, we'll be able to tell the time. And the good thing about a drill press is you can drill down to a certain point and then it stops, right? So, when it stops, that means we know that we're not going to drill too far and come out the other side. Okay, so now we can drill knowing that we won't go all the way through our beautiful piece of willow. Let's do that outside. Where's some other funny puns? Well, how about I hold it in place and you do the spinning? Okay. Let's make that our first hole. Okay. So, I'll hold it. I'll jam it against this. How do we turn this baby on? Oh, like that? Okay. Give her. And it's only going to go... Oh. It's going to take forever. I have to tighten this thing. Ready? Give her. Here we go. One more time. Please just work. So, I'm just going to keep going as far as I can crank it? Yes, until you can't move it anymore. All right. Still got a ways to go. Oh. Okay, ready? I'm no time like now. Yeah, that's a good one. Almost there. Almost there. Touch more. All right, that's it. You made it. Oh, yeah. Well, it took us a few minutes, but we drilled our hole out in the back here, our four circles, and let's go inside and see if our clock mechanism fits inside. Come on, guys. I got a hand that you joined. You really impressed me. I was trying to face my fears of the drill. Oh, good. Let's see if this works, everyone. The moment of truth. Perfect. And the front. Yeah, and the front. Yeah, we need the white part to be sticking up. So, this is actually the hour hand, and look, that's too long. And this is actually the minute hand. And that's the second hand. Oh, but that's good, though. We'll have perfect. Where do we want to cut these? Yeah? Yeah. Are we happy with this? So, what we're going to do is to make these a little more industrial looking, we're going to sand off the white. Yeah, and just snip them with the... And snip them. Snips. I'm actually going to get snipped. Awkward silence. Moving on. Why don't you take these 10 snips and just cut along the line. Okay. And I'm going to go get some fan paper. How do you make metal look aged? I don't know how you make it look aged. I guess you can put stuff on it. Or do you like let it soak in water? Yeah. Should I leave a bit of white? Or just let it look like that? So, it's kind of distressed? Yeah. You can do that. Okay. So, what we're doing is just marking off where our quarter hour increments are going to be here. Yep. Minute hand. We'll center this, and center this. And then at the tip, we'll draw a line that way, and that's the exact center point of something. So, we have marked these four spots. And we're going to drill a hole with this bit in each one of them, just down within an inch or something. And then we have a wooden chisel. We're going to chisel and turn these circles into squares. So, that four squares that we'll do something exciting with. This is our chisel. It's kind of a 90 degree angle. So, we're going to tap it twice into the circle to make a square hole. Just like the pioneers used to do. That's right. Since they plugged in there. Drill press. Okay. Drill a hole. All right. But not very deep though, right? Oh, yeah. Give her. Just give her. Oh, just give her. More. More? Why not? Are you crazy? Okay, that's good. So, this is one of these chisels. It's called a flanger dongle. And I'm just going like that and making corners. Look at that. What do you always say, Joanne? You can't beat a flanger dongle. Oh, look at that one, Ed. Oh. Now it's a two banger. Flanger dongle. Well, Dave, I think it's break time. So, look at what we've done today. Awesome. We drilled a big hole in the back or four holes to make a big hole in the back for our clock mechanism. And then we drilled our 15 minute increments here. And the next step is going to be a pre-seal. Giving a real thin coat of art resin just to prevent any bubbles. Well, we'll sand it first to take this off. Oh, yeah. I was, yeah. Yeah. Sand first and I see. Oh, and we also cut the letter, the arms and sanded them too. Yes, that's right. We did a lot today. We did a lot today. Break time for sure. Tune in next time. See that? Yes, I did. See you later. I have to come up with something more good ones. I can only think of like five blocks. Just you wait. Oh, just wait. Ever? I wasn't even trying. I got a hand it to you. Okay. So tick tock, Joanne. Tick tock. Here we are back with our clock and we're going to do a couple of things today. First, we're going to sand it. We're going to get off this writing here. We're going to get off our face template. So we're going to give it a nice quick sand the belt sander. Belt sander. Belt sander it is. Okay. So we're going to do that and then we're going to do a pre-seal with our art resin. We have it here all ready to go. And what's the pre-seal for Dave? Well, good question. That's because some wood still has some moisture and some stuff going in there. Still breathing a bit. And if we were to do a full coat, there's a chance that the wood could still be releasing some sort of air or something and could create bubbles in it. So a nice really thin pre-seal. We'll just stop that first to stop any bubbles from coming up and then we'll do the final coat and then we'll be able to tell the time. They're used to. That's right. Okay. Here we go, Joanne. Alrighty. Hold your breath. Close your eyes. It's going to get dusty. Okay. I'm ready. Look at that. All right. That's got to be enough. Okay. Okay. Time present. Was that a joke and a dance? It was. So Joanne's heading downstairs to get some compressed air so we can just to get all the dust out of all the little grooves and stuff. And in the meantime, I'm going to tell you some clock stories. All right. So when they were building Big Ben, you know the huge tower in London? Big Ben, the clock? They called us. This was way back in the 40s, I think. And they said, we're looking for a resin that's super clear and non-toxic because they were concerned about their workers, these unions were coming and everything. And I said, if you're building a clock and you use resin, you should use art resin because it's No VOCs, non-toxic, don't have to wear a respirator and it has the best non-yellowing performance. And I was like, why call it Big Ben? And it's actually Ben is the guy that used to own the little plot of land that they built Big Ben on. And he was actually really small, but they called it Big Ben because he said, if you're going to build a clock here, you have to call it name it after me. But I want to be remembered as someone important. Any questions? What's the plan here? Just pour it and rub? Pour. Do you want to just stand it and just use the gloves? Let's just do that. So here we go. Gloved hands. You do the honors, please. Okay. So look at that. It's the best part. Isn't this fun? Look at that. How does it make the wood look? Look at that. I know. Beautiful. It's so pretty. So you just see all the different grains. Yeah. You see all the texture. And it stays like that. So you could actually keep this clock outside. You could. No one tells time like this anymore. I know. It's true. It's time to bring back the old times. Wow. That was a double time. Did we catch that? That was a really good turn, man. And I can see there's already some bubbles popping up here, I guess. Oh yeah. You know what that means. It's off-gassing. Yes. But we're not going to worry about torching it right now, right? For these bubbles because... Yeah, we'll just sand and then do our final coat. That's okay. So it's a good thing that we did this first pre-coat. So we might have to like just re-drill through there. Yeah. Okay, high-five. High-five. Until next time, guys. Yeah. We'll see you next time. Okay. Great to be back. It's about time. Right off the bat. You know, time flies when you're having fun. Where are we? We're back here again. And we did our first coat and just kind of seal it so that we stop any off-gassing from happening because it would. So it's basically alive. So that'll stop bubbles and kind of seal it. So seal it so we don't lose a lot of resin just soaking right in. That's right. So now what are we doing? Today what we're going to do, we're going to do two things today. We're going to fill in our holes here with some silver resin tint. And then there are some spots here that didn't take the resin. Now don't get ticked off if you see this. Whoa, that's a new one. We're going to fill these in with clear resin. Just in these little craters and holes here in the wood. The natural formations in the wood that didn't take the resin. Okay, great. So let's get mixing. We already poured our resin and our hardener here. We did. Wait a minute. What? Did you catch that? I did it again. Clear resin first, right? We're going to fill in our holes first. Yes. With clear resin. And then once we've done that, we're going to add the silver resin tint. Exactly. To the remaining amount. Yeah. Okay. What do you think? Can't wait to watch. Oh, watch. That was a good one. Do you think people will get annoyed with Oliver Pines? Yes. Thoroughly, next for three minutes. What do you want to talk about for three minutes? Um, I don't know. Can you tell jokes? I can't. Do you have one? I do have one. Okay, cool. What does a clock do when it's hungry? I don't know. What is it, too? It goes back for seconds. Oh. That was good. Anything else? Oh, you do have more. I do. Wow, you came prepared. What did one clock say to the other clock? I don't know. You're really ticking me off. Oh, I should have known that. Daylight savings time? Oh, yeah. It's interesting. It is. Why don't you go ahead and do those voids there? Okay, and it doesn't matter if it runs over, right? Because we're going to sand it down anyway. We're going to belt sand this. We're going to sand this. So while Joanne finishes up, I'll talk to you about resin tins. So take a look at that. See, this is silver. So there's sediment at the bottom. And then the oil. It's an oil-based product. So if you want to mix it in, there's a little ball bearing in here. The tip is you loosen the cap at the time you bit until it's an air in, and then you shake it. And that makes a world of difference. It's smart. You hear that ball bearing? It's now perfect. Beautiful. I'm going to put a bunch of silver in here. I'm going to put a lot. So I'm just mixing that in there. And that's good enough, I guess. So now we're just going to fill up these holes. Ah, that's so cool. Let's start with 12 o'clock and move around the clock. Oh, what's that one song? About clocks? Dancing around the clock tonight? Rock Around the Clock? Rock Around the Clock. Ooh, let's think of clock songs or time songs. Oh, Coldplay has that song called Clock. Are you right? Yep. Hmm, what else? It doesn't share how it sounds. If I could turn back time. So that's way too much, but we're going to belt sand all that off and... That's pretty cool, huh? Yeah, super cool. That was my next one. Time after time. Who's saying it? Cindy Lauper. Are you ready? I'm ready. Oh yeah, that's amazing. Oh, it never gets old. Oh, wow. Okay, I think we're done here. Let's hand it over to our sponsor. Until next time. Until next time. Stay on top of the time. I suck at this. Punts are hard. I know. All right, we're back for clock, for the clock part. Where are we on? Three, three, four. What are we going to do today? That's what I want to know. Yeah, good question. Well, today's going to be an easy day because we are just going to sand the heck out of this. Yep. And then resin, hopefully that's the final resin coat. Yep. And that's in preparation for putting in the clock mechanism in the back that we're going to do next time after it cures. Yeah, I'm really excited to see how these turn out. Our 12 o'clock, three o'clock, six o'clock, and nine o'clock squares. Yeah. Okay. So we got our belt sander or plugged in. Where's the button? Trigger. Yeah, okay. Beautiful. What do you think, Dave? Looks good, eh? I think it's great. All right. So what have you done here, Joanne? We've taped off the bottom because we don't want any pesky drips. So that's going to help with that. Yeah, it'll make our life so much easier. Yes. And we belt sanded down the face. We also pre-leveled everything. That'll do it. We did the math, too. Dave did the math. Yes. Face it, Dave. I can't do math. Face it, face it. We, one square foot is four ounces of art resin. So that's two of resin and two of hardener. This is more than one square foot, but we're just going to do a square foot because... We can. We can. Give her. We're going to stir for three minutes. Oh, that's so nice and liquidy. I know. Be sure to scrape the sides and bottoms as you go. I'm going to stop doing clock funds because I feel like people are getting annoyed. Really? Yeah, look at them. For you? I'm sorry. All right, I think that's good. Okay. If you say so. Yeah. So we're going to attempt to just push the resin right to the edge instead of just letting it run over the side. It might run over the side, but we'll just do our best. All righty. No time like now. That was not... I didn't mean to do that. I was just saying. Okay, so we're ready to torch now, but I just wanted to point out we are getting a few drips. We are totally not even worried about this edge here because Dave's going to saw it off, right? You're going to... Yep. Just run it through the table saw. Yep. When everything's done. And then there are... And then we're just kind of rubbing drips in here. If there are any, all the curves and everything in the wood will hide any imperfections in our resin job on the sides. We're not worried about that. Yeah. And they're probably just going to run right down anyway, right? We're going to level out. We're not going to have big pools or anything. So... That's right. Okay, girl. Okay, here we go. This is always the best part. Look at that grain. Oh, my Lord. Awesome, girl. Is that enough? Yeah, let's cover it and get out of here. Okay. Okay. Here we go. There we go. Okay. See you next time, little clock. So what do we have left? All we have to do is... We're so close now. Can you believe it? Cut the bottom, drill out the middle part and put in the hardware, and then just enjoy it. And then tell the time. Thanks for joining us on this adventure. Give me a terminator line. It's time. Like that? No, that was... Oh, God. Let's just go. We're back here with our final finish clock. And look how beautiful it is. I love art resin on wood. It just makes it look so, so, so beautiful. Yeah. But the problem is I don't really... It takes so long to read what time it is. Because it's like, look it. You have to say the other thing I've never said. No. How do you do this? I don't know what time this is. I think it's like 25 to 5. I don't know. Like that's 3, 4, like 5. Anyways, it looks great. It's for smart people. Yeah, you don't actually... It's very... Yeah. And you don't actually need to use it as a clock. It just looks like you're really smart. Exactly. Yeah, and then you say I made it myself and it was easy, right? So you're crafty and smart. Creative and smart. Yeah. So the last steps were really easy. Just picking all the tape off of the back. Just use an exacto knife to get under there. Did you get that? I did. And then re-drilled the center hole just to get rid of all the epoxy that had hardened in there. And made it nice and clean. And then just ran it through the table saw to make the perfectly flat bottom. I love that smell. Delicious, eh? And you can actually see how thick the resin is now right on the side, which is kind of neat. Then we took our clock mechanism here and you can see we just placed it in the back in that hole that we've made. And we lined up our second in minute and hour hands here. And then just fit the whole thing in. Looks beautiful. It was hard. Those pants, did you ruin them from working so hard? I know, from hard labor. Did you or you bought them? I bought them. Yeah. So Dave, I really think we deserve a hand for this clock. It looks awesome. Slow clap. Yeah. I guess my final words are I never really thought about time and like what is time? Oh wow, that's getting pretty deep now. It's kind of existential. I don't know. What is time? Anyways, if you know, comment below and thanks for watching. And Drann, that was great. It's second to none. It's second to none. I'm done, I'm dead. Next time on Dave and Joanne Make Something, we are going to make a... You have to watch and see.
