My husband and I are looking to make a mantel clock for our recently returned from Iraq Marine son and his new wife. Thought I'd try this site. He likes cherry wood and clean, simple lines. Suggestions?

Welcome to the forum.
I, as well as others here, have made some. Here's a simple one I made of cherry and walnut.

Thanks for the plug Bj, here are some more ideas, most of the clocks have full photo shoots including making the templates where needed, in my gallery.

The best advice that I can give a newcomer to routing is, learn to use the router mounted, this can be as simple as a board held in a vice, with the router firmly attached and a simple fence held with clamps, and when he/she feels competant and confident in it's use and is familiar with all aspects of safety, THEN, and only then proceed to learn how to use the router hand held. This is MY opinion, and may or may not coincide with that of the forum management, but is based on a lifetime of woodworking.
