My Typhoon Wheel Clock Project.

[Mad Mike]

Here's the begining of my Typhoon Wheel Clock for my garage. Anyone have suggestions for what to use for the numbers of the clock? Or does it need 'em?

 

[BigBadSmoosh]

looks good.. but that wheel is probably straighter than any of the wheels i have

 

[Mad Mike]

OMG! I hope your kidding!

 

[S4Vince]

OMG he drilled a center cap!!!!! We'll, at least I'm not the only one....................... looks good, very creative!

Looks like you might want to paint the hands Red or Black to get more contrast against the rim.

I guess you're right,.....given a second look, I see them better, must have been the coffee finally kicking in....... or that you took another picture.....(did your reply change)

I'll make you a set of numbers if you want me to. I've got a extra center cap I can get the measurements off of. I do vinyl signs on the side and would be glad to fix you up. Send me your address and I will mail them to you.

Nice job Mike!!

I am going to mount a Ty rim w/tire on my wall in my garage, but I didn't think to make it into a clock......clever idea!

Thanks Jimmy. I had that wheel and was trying to think of ways to use it. I thought about using as a air hose holder, just mounting it on the wall or making it into a bar stool style seat, using the wheel as the seat. I had the clock internals so here it is. Feel bad about destroying a center cap but it looks cool and a perfect addition to my garage. Oh, my neighbor gave me new carpet so the sy gets to rest on wall to wall carpet.

Damn Mike. That is cool as hell!! Very unique idea. Instead of putting 1, 2, 3, 4, etc..... I'd just put a "4.3" at the 12 - 3 - 6 and 9 position. Be sure to let us see it when it's done.

Or... I was thinking syclone(red) at 12 and 6, typhoon(silver) at the 3, typhoon(gold) at the 9 positions. Can anyone help me out with scaled sized color logos of each? Joey?

Yeah, that's a good idea. Or maybe even "PAS" at 12- "syclone" at 3- "sonoma gt" at 6- and "typhoon" at 9.

Like Morgan said, when that's done, it better be at the next meet along with you and your truck.

Very nice, Id paint the gmc red, Then do the hands in red, also get the rim polished to a high shine. It should look really good. Fern Sy#477

 

[AXXE]

I agree. That would look great polished. Glad to see the center cap is getting better use than sitting in my basement.
