Seeing as the recent post about a wooden calculator proved so popular, here’s a look at another carpentry creation: a pocket watch made from wood. Excellent timepiece blog The Watchismo times found this Russian creation, dating back to around the turn of the century (no, not the one just gone). Some sources claim that the watch is entirely made out of wood, but I doubt it - the power source in pocketwatches is a tightly coiled metal spring, and I just can’t see wood living up to that task. Still, a marvellous creation!
