How the Water Becomes Wood

The face is the water itself, holding regular hours.

  1. ChartThe shoreline is taken from a bathymetric chart of the water.
  2. CutThe face is laser-cut birch with a hand-stained water layer beneath.
  3. EtchContours, depths, and place names are burned into the surface.
  4. RunA single AA battery drives the movement, and it arrives ready to hang.

A Lake Winnipesaukee wall clock: 12 inches of carved birch with the lake's island maze etched beneath the hands.

Winnipesaukee summers have their own clock, rafts out by nine, the Mount Washington's horn on schedule, ice cream runs to Weirs timed by boat traffic, and this one keeps regular hours over the same water. The etching carries the Broads, the bays at Meredith and Alton, and enough of the 250-plus islands to start the family argument about which is which.

It belongs on a camp wall between the paddle rack and the door.

The whole lake in stacked depth layers lives on the Winnipesaukee 3D chart.
