Desk/mantle clock

Standing 9" tall and made from yew, this is my adaptation of an antique clock see recently. Made up from 10 separately turned parts, the turning was easy but accuracy in measurements was essential.

Very nice Ian! Which species of Yew is it made from? I've turned quite a few pieces from Pacific Yew. It's amazing the percision you can produce when you put your mind to it.
