Norm builds a simple tall case clock out of poplar.
Without dispute, one of the greatest collections of American
antiques resides at the Winterthur Museum in Delaware. One of the
museum's most popular displays, the original workshops of the
Dominy family, quickly draws Norm's attention. The Dominys were
clock and cabinetmakers who worked in eastern Long Island from the
1730s to the 1830s, creating high-quality clocks and furniture.
Norm visits the exhibit and selects a clock, circa 1821, from the
Dominy collection to reproduce back in the workshop. Norm builds
his simple tall case clock out of poplar and paints it to resemble
the original.
