THE ORIGINAL PROJECT WRITE-UP
THE STORY & THE BUILD.
As a thank you to Mike at M2 Graphix for leasing me a wonderful workspace I decided to make him an office clock inspired by the wonderful old warbirds from the second World War. I have been collecting these old gas cans for a while now (I have 4 in stock if someone is looking for a cool project!). This one already had a perfect color and patina as a base so I cut a panel to mount the clock movements in, installed some rivnuts so it could be easily accessed to change batteries. Now the fun part! Out of storage came the OneShot sign painting kit and gave it that classic angry look.
