Crop Clock Keeps Time With Grain
"This clock lets you bring the beauty of your crops into your home," says Wayne Sebens, Milnor, N. Dak., about his one-of-a-kind "crop clock" that's filled with 12 different grains - one for each hour on the clock.
The clock is about 12 in. in dia. and 2 in. deep. The 12 pie-shaped sections extend out from the center of the 6-in. dia. clock face which pictures a grist mill scene. It's constructed with an oak veneer plywood.
Grains used include corn, soybeans, sunflower; wheat, oats, millet, two types of edible beans, and several others which vary depending on availability. The clock itself is battery-powered.
Sebens has had so much interest in the crop clocks he's sold more than 200 by word-of-mouth. One seed company bought a specially-made batch (with just 6 grains) to use as a sales promotion premium.
The crop clock sells for $50.
