Is there anything more soothing than the subtle sound of a tall clock’s steady movement? The ocean maybe, but try getting that in your living room. Besides, a tall clock is one of those heirloom pieces of furniture that end up getting passed down through the generations. And these plans, by Robert Treanor, utilize standard lumberyard material – 1×12’s, 1×10’s, and 1×8’s. So after a trip to the lumberyard you’ll be ready to get started without having to dimension your materials.
The Shaker clock, based on an early 19th century design, is unadorned and classic in form. The case joinery is as uncomplicated as the design. The sides are glued and nailed into rabbets cut in the case front. The back is screwed on, and the case is joined to the base with dowels.
The painted finish of this clock is simple and authentic, but you can also use hardwood with a clear finish.

Too bad that it does not download.
This is great - I had no problem downloading this article and several others. Thanks!
I built this clock last spring. It's a good/fun project and the clock looks great in my living room.
I can't get it to download either.
How can I get a copy if I can't down load it either? Carl
it want donwload for me a bad link
To download:
1. Click the CLICK HERE link above. It loads another page that kind of looks the same.
2. On the newly loaded page, look for the link that says "View as PDF," and click on that. That downloads a PDF version of the article into your browser.
3. Click "Save" in your browser, and voila! You have a printable PDF of the plans.
Hope this helps. I had trouble downloading because I was only getting half a page, but I finally clicked on the sliver of a picture and the download adobe came up.
Is there supposed to be a cutting list here to? If so where can I find it?
Hi Folks, I had the same trouble downloading the plans but as one man has already spoken, I will agree it works. Click on the sliver of the picture on the left and it will begin to download. It is a slow download so be patient. 1.7 MB and it is in PDF format. Shaker plans are not my cup of tea but I had to prove that it works since it was difficult.
