      Having had an enormous amount of advice about scroll saws (and it will all be available in 'search' for evermore) I now feel confident enough to make a confession of weakness of character.

      After finishing my rather personalised version of W. Smith's grasshopper clock five years ago I wanted something a bit more challenging, so I bought all the metal needed to make Merlin Band Clock. I also bought a 'book of words' which is/was in bad need of editing. I wrote to the publishers about this but nothing came of it. I intended to crack on with this clock and certainly not let it slide. That was five years ago and I have just finished making the centre arbor and the worm on the escape arbor.

      In the meantime, in retirement, I have been a perfect husband, kept all house door locks and hinges working perfectly and chopped the firewood.

      Is this a record?

          My 'simple beginners model' ASRL to a Vic Smeed design took about 20 years…

          Probably!
