WOW, Never had a clock in my garage or shops. I have the barns, tractor barn, the machine shop and a wood shop. None have a clock. I stoped waring a watch in 1980 and take a pocket watch when I travel over seas.

I never have charged buy the hour but by the job for anything I have done. I make more money that way.

I don't even have a cell phone. The wife has one and I take it if I am on the go and she is at home. If you call the house I will not answer and will get back to you when I remember to check messages. This one will blow you away. I have never had cable TV. I refuse to pay for all the ****. I would rather read then watch a movie.

Everywhere you go there is a clock. The computer, the stove, the microwave, the TV, the car, The radio, the VCR or DV recorder all have clocks. I have antique clocks and I never wind them. My wife stopped the grandfather clock years ago. The chime drove her nuts. LOL

I don't need to know when it is time to take a break, clock in or go home.
I have never sent a test message or photo. I don't belong to any socal groups and I would never have a Face book page or the such.

I don't have a need to stay attached to anyone anytime. I don't want to know what you are doing and it is none of your business what I am doing.

It is a wonder I ever made a good living. LOL

After reading this, I am wondering as well.

:D Great to see/read there is still somebody else around like that. I stopped wearing a watch in 1979 and take a cell phone when I travel overseas. All in all, maybe 90% of those points above match my way of living. Well, I do not own a tractor or barns, though.:(

That's real interesting guys, With all respect to your posts and lifestyle decisions, this thread is about shop clocks you HAVE. To show off the clocks you don't have, maybe that's a different topic? Just sayin', let's be respectful of people who subscribe here because they have interest in the topic.

Once I get some other things out of the way and have a little free time, this is next on my list. I figured it would make a pretty unique clock for the shop. For anyone who doesnt know what it is, its a rotor out of a mazda rotary engine. I had 2 motors sitting around that had lost their apex seals and were junk. Id like to find a way to turn the rotor housing into a goldfish tank using a couple sheets of lexan.

I can't see them image - but I have one of those in process for a clock....a tach gauge backing out of the 83 GSL-SE also has a perfect 12 divisions and the radius of the markings fit within the rotor gear....damn, I need to get that made - I've got the workings, gauge back, and everything.

Going thru my basement stuff, stumbled upon this clock that I got 35 years ago working at a lawn mower shop. Replaced the movement, hands, good cleaning and I think it looks pretty good on the wall. :D
