These chunky new hangers are made from our top-quality Italian slip in a two-part mould, right here on the premises. This means they are totally flat on the back, with great details cast into the front for kids to follow.

At 12-15cm wide, these pieces are perfect for parties, and the price compares favourable against other typical party-ware such as small dishes. They have a heavy gauge fireable hook in the top which means no messy clearing out holes in the bisque. Simply attach a ribbon or put in a presentation box for the customer to collect. They'll be pleased as punch!

Brand new clock movements, traditional, modern, large and small for all your clock-making needs. Simply bore a hole in the centre of the bisque, do the decoration, and attach the movement. If you are unsure how to do this, follow the instructions below:

Movement fixing instructions:

The brass thread is on the movement spindle which makes assembly of the clock very easy and provides protection to the plastic spindle.
To make a clock simply drill an 8mm to 10mm hole in the bisque.
Place the rubber washer (supplied) over the movement spindle and push the spindle through the hole from the back of the piece.
Place the brass washer (supplied) over the spindle from the front. (This covers any small chips or ragged edges around the hole)
Then tighten the brass nut (supplied) on the thread until the movement is held firmly.
Push the hour hand then the minute hand and then the second hand on to the spindle making sure they all point to the 12.
Put in the battery (not supplied) and that’s it - your clock will start !
Tip from the ticknology dept ! We always supply a second hand with each clock movement
If you don't want to use a second hand just separate the aluminium second hand from the brass bush and push the brass bush on to the second hand spindle to neatly cover the centre hole.
