Several weeks ago I made a weather station for my daughter in CT. I just completed another one for my other daughter in San Francisco. Same design as the first but using recycled longleaf/heart pine and a normal clock instead of a tide clock. Instruments and the plan which I modified are from Klockit. Finish is 3 coats of brush on lacquer. The instrument board swivels to enable different viewing angles and access to the back of the instruments for adjustment. The hardest part of the project was constructing the box to ship it in. :gar-La; I am getting pretty good at cardboard box construction techniques, it is amazing what one can do with a razor and hot glue gun. :wsmile:
