I can’t wait to enter. With out you guys I couldn’t do what I do..
Thank you for your kind words, Mark! We look forward to seeing some more of your neat projects.
Can I enter a clock that was made a few years ago?
Absolutely!
Yay! That will be FUN!!! 🙂
This should be interesting. OK to enter more than one design?
Hi Carl, yes it is OK to enter more than one design. We love to see what our customers create! The only catch is that you can’t win more than one prize…say if you win 1st place you wouldn’t be able to win 2nd or 3rd place prizes. Good luck!
Building a new clock for this as we speak. It’s great that we can enter more than one and previously made clocks. More than the chance to win is the viewing of others work and ideas. I have used Klockit parts since last century over 2 decades ago, ya I’m old, so the rest of you prepare to lose to an old man. Bwa haha!
Your comment made our Monday, Bob! Yes, please enter as many clocks as you would like. We loved your work in the past and are definitely looking forward to seeing what your new clock project is all about. P.S. ‘Old’ is just a three-letter word in our books 🙂 Good luck!
Enjoy clock making so I made relatives one for each last Christmas.. The contest interests me so lets see what I can do.
Glad to have you, Dayle. Hopefully this contest will be fun for you! We look forward to your clock(s) 🙂
I added a clock yesturday (sunday 5/12/13). I have a few more Im going to add. I love designing and building clocks. I started building clocks about 7 months ago. It all started when I made a clock for myself and people saw it and asked if id build them one and thats when Jeremiah Clock Designs was born. Thanks Klockit for everything you do for us clock makers! I just wish my 24′ tall outdoor tower clock was close to completion for this contest but thats ok. Its going to be a few months before its complete.
Thanks again,
Jeremiah James

Hi Jeremiah, we did see the clock you added yesterday and the one from this morning. Both look great! We can tell you love designing and building clocks 🙂 Keep us updated on your outdoor tower clock – we’d love to see the final!
I have a few other clocks that I am going to enter in the contest. I will email step by step pics of my tower clock as I build it.
That sounds great! We look forward to seeing your other clocks and the step by step pictures. Good luck!

I made a clock that is no longer in my possession, is it eligible?
Hi Calvin – Yes, it would be eligible as long as you send in a picture of the clock and the story behind it.
