Free Clock Dials
I needed a custom clock dial for several shaker clocks we were building, so a friend, Chris Haywood, whipped out a beautiful clock dial using Corel Draw. I have since modified the original files to include Roman numerals. In the interest of sharing, I have included links to a variety of clock dials. Using Corel or a compatible package, you can size and edit the clock dial as you wish. I printed mine on card stock and used a spray adhesive to attach it to a plywood substrate.
If you're using MS Internet Explorer, simply right-click on one of the following links to save the clock dial file to your computer's hard drive. You may have difficulty downloading the Corel Draw clock dial. If so, download the .zip file.
If you need the clock dial in a different size or want text added to it, E-mail Us, I can make changes for a nominal fee. I was doing this service for free, but I can no longer justify it given my tight time commitments.

Don Dorn's Shaker Clock Face
In the best spirit of sharing, Don Dorn has shared his authentic Shaker-style clock face. It is in .jpg format. In Don's words, "It's in jpeg format so a person can edit it by putting a date in if they would like. The date most often recognized is 1840 which is the year that Isac Youngs made 22 of the wall clocks."
Thanks Don! So for those of you wanting an authentic Shaker-style clock face, here it is:
