Hi Dave
I know this is a old post but if you didn't find a router bit to use give this one a try, it's a great bit and you can use in a small router or a trim router.

It's the same type of bit that Sears is now using in their new computer carving machine that sells for 1900.oo dollars and runs CarveWright software and looks like a 14" planer or to say a CNC machine.
If you have the bucks the new Sears machine will cut your clock parts out quick and easy.

This is now on my wish list and I'm going to get one as soon as I rob bank

just kidding but I'm going to get one.
The real neat thing about this tool I don't need to have the computer in the shop, just need to but the items I want to make on a memory card then just put it in the machine.
And with Opt. Scanning Probe (299.oo item) I can copy anything that's fits in the machine and put it on the memory card so I can make as many copies as I need to or resize them on the PC.
Dave ,like parts for a wooden clock
Just a NOTE**** you can download the software to have a look see BUT it's a big file 63mb. but the the machine comes with a cd for the software install.
