I obtained a clock working from a company in the UK and inserted it into the main body. The cardboard tube needed the slightest of sanding out before the clock fit inside. I cut this to the correct length and so far everything was to the dimensions of the original plan.
I decided that the front face of the clock needed to be strong as it is going on display so i utilised thin plastic card sheet. I drilled out the holes for the attaching screws and the clock shaft.
