Thanks for all the compliments :shy:

"Handmade!" he replied proudly  ;D

I bought a second hand clock (for $5 or so), erased the original numbers, and then simply printed the letters and glued them on the plate.

I enjoy giving people  things that I make, especially when it hits a home run like yours did - So cool Dutch!

Thanks for the info.
