Star Wars Wall Clock

I spent Saturday making a Star Wars themed wall clock. It's the symbol of the rebel alliance, and it came out pretty good. It's currently hanging at my work. I can see the imperfections, but I'm just calling them my signature homemade style! My first time with scrolling cuts at the band saw. Yeah, I could use some more practice! 2+ hours of rasps, files and sandpaper. I need a spindle sander... UPDATE: On a whim, I posted it on my Etsy page, and it sold. I ended up re-sanding the imperfections, adding a better mounting solution and fixing some finishing flaws so I feel it will be well received. But that's not the strange part. I miss it. I think I will have to find some time to make another one in the future... UPDATE: It's July and I completed it's replacement. This one will not be for sale, it is now part of my office decor.
