Ideal

 

     The main body of the clock is a door covering an old electrical box outside of a home. The numbers of the clock are made from old telephone pole number spikes found in a box that someone was throwing out on trash day. The piece for the number “12” on the face is the tip that was sawn off from a large conch shell to make a conch horn.

 

     The “Ideal” piece was found in the parking lot of a local nursery. The pendulum is a tin lid with a bottle cap. The finial at the crown was found in the wall of a kitchen remodeling at the Charles Wheaton house in Rehoboth, MA.  (Circa 1706)
