Cigar Box Clocks I've made

[thebayratt]

I made a cigar box clock for myself a while back. Then a few other friends wanted ones for themselves... Next thing you know I have a waiting list for them!
Here are the ones I've made so far:

Just finished this one up today. It will ship out tomorrow.

Anybody wants one, let me know, we'll work out a deal.​

Beautiful! Great idea.

What are you doing for hanging purposes?

That is sick! I might have to do that with a box I have. That would look good in the Man cave I plan to build this year.

I have a new prototype for you:

Just takes a little measuring and alot of patience!

Please tell me that is not from a box of Esplendidos, that you bought and smoked.

LOL, no I like tobacco in my cigars not rolled up banana leaves and donkey hair. I appreciate your concern though :halfgrinw

Ahh, got plenty of those from the wifes artwork, I have been planning on making some cigar box clocks myself. I guess I'll grab a few empties from the b&m tonight.

I need to check out a shop for different hands. I just took them off a clock I found at a carport sale today. The clock only cost a quarter.

Cool :thumbsup:. Been thinking of doing one of these since Krishna showed me the one he did out of an LFD box.

experiment #1

Michaels is expensive for clock parts and limited...online seems to be the place to get stuff properly.

Thats awesome!
I like the Cigar Factory's cigars! I think next time I go i'll see if they have a Tres Hermanos Box. (my favorite there)


The CAO box; I was going to cut a band of each line (Brazillia, Itallia, Latraviata, Black) and use them for the 12-3-6-9 numbers, but the bands were too big. Next time I'll use a larger box and do it.

DO one with cigar labels!

DO one with cigar labels!

If I can get a LX2 or larger style CAO box I will.
I have a Viaje Box too I was thinking about doing it with.

A good box to use would be the Man O' War Ruination Robusto #1 box.
