Wooden Clocks

Has anyone here ever built a wooden clock? I stumbled across this website the other day, and am very tempted to try over winter break. I've since found several other websites that sell plans too. Seems like they mostly withhold their CAD models, but I'm probably not patient enough to cut them out by hand, so I'll probably just reCAD them from the paper drawings and cut them on a CNC table anyways.

Video example of the steps involved in making one by hand.

They all describe the process as incredibly frustrating, but I'm curious if anyone here has first hand experience on just how bad it might be. I'm almost as big a mechanism geek as I am plane dork, so I really want one.

Still have yet to pick my jaw up off the floor after I saw this one...
