Took a small break from the clock the past few days. Very busy here, and that's a good thing! I still have not fastened the large cove moulding nor the bead moulding. My thinking now is to hold-off on that until I build the companion pieces that go on the top [only in reverse]. So, next-up is to build the second large cove moulding. Here's hoping that it goes as well as the first time. I still have the planing jig, the raw lumber cut to size, and the details on how I made the quite complicated angle cuts. I'm figuring that it will take 2-days as the last time. I purchased a humidifier today that is setup in the room with the clock case. Getting dry inside this time of year and I don't want to risk a fracture in the clock case as a result. Finally, I also wanted to show you a photo of my mathematics showing that the pendulum would travel just-over 2" [either way] and within the just-under 3" of allotted space. Enjoy!
