How To Make Your Clock
Step 1: Decide where you want the clock hands to go on your Walker's Decorative Tin Lid, mark the inside with a bit of tape and carefully drill or hammer a hole big enough to fit the clock mechanism.
Step 2: Assembly with the kit instructions is easy! Simply insert the clock mechanism through and attach the washer and bolt and add a battery.
Step 3: Flip the lid over, attach the hands, and you're done!
TIP: If you can’t find clock hands in the color you like, simply paint them with a bit of nail polish. There are so many colors to choose from and it’s much easier than using spray paint.
Now treat yourself to some delicious Walker's Shortbread for a job well done and enjoy your new clock!
