![]() I came up with the idea of having the hands run counterclockwise, even though the face is numbered in the normal clockwise direction (if the design calls for markers instead of numbers, convention dictates they are clockwise). My work is inspired by the beautiful artistry of the great Swiss watchmakers.Īfter building several conventional clocks, I began thinking about adding visual interest in the gear rotation and hand movement. After all, most gears in conventional designs turn at an imperceptible rate. ![]() For my furniture builds, I use it to shape legs, cut mortises and engrave subtle designs in cabinetry fronts. On one occasion I used it to cut a set of tenons that would have been very difficult using traditional methods due to the compound angles involved.Īlthough I am an electrical engineer, I have always been fascinated by anything mechanical, particularly open works or “skeleton” watches. I started building clocks as a way to combine my woodworking interest and machinery. Given the number of clocks I now build, a CNC is an absolute necessity. In addition to the gears, I use it to cut clock faces, frame components, motor mounts, hands, etc. After fully retiring, I’ve been devoting more of my time to woodworking and am honoured to have my work displayed by individuals, collectors and institutions. Over the last 6 years have focused much of my attention on making clocks, although I still make furniture. ![]() I have a background in high-tech engineering and business management and have been a woodworker for over 30 years.

All that it’s really looking for is the name of the show and the season and episode numbers. For example, if you have things like “dvdrip” in the file name, it doesn’t care. In fact, Plex is so good it’s able to disregard information that isn’t important.

No matter how the rogue refugee is dealt with, Silvar becomes a peaceful settlement once again, albeit still troubled by the Sliths. He sent a group of adventurers (known as the Horde Triad Slayers) to kill Wetzel. Mayor Augustus was infuriated by this deed. However, his idea was denied so he tried to rebel, taking a bunch of refugees to help him out. One day, a man named Wetzel said that the bridge that leads to the rest of Avernum should be destroyed to stop the Slith Horde from proceeding further. The refugees stayed in a cramped corner in the east part of town, helped by an escaped female Empire citizen who healed them. This annoyed the Captain and the soldiers, but they let them in since it was the Mayor's order to do so. In Avernum 6, Silvar was a normal town, minding its business until it was filled with refugees from the Great Portal after its destruction. The situation was like this until the arrival of a small group of Adventurers (later known as the Shade Killers) aided by The Castle's alchemist Correlea managed to find a way to destroy the Shade, freeing Silvar from its curse. Unfortunately, one of those residents was its current Mayor. The location that the Shade chose was the former Barracks, killing a lot of soldiers while settling there and maddening a few of the Town's residents. In Avernum 4, Silvar was one of the most endangered towns, being invaded by the Black Shade of Ice that changes its location (the location being Formello to the north). It is likely that Silvar in Avernum was given the same name by a founder who was homesick. In Avernum 3, the Surface Explorers find a town called Silvar in the Kriszan Province. It held its title "One of the six towns of the Council" once again. After the destruction of the secret Empire Spies on their island, Silvar became relatively safe, unable to be attacked and destroyed by sea due to its reinforced defenses. During that time, it was one of the less endangered towns, despite the destruction of Cotra. However, it also had to hold back a variety of monsters who were attacking it from the west, including Nephilim, Nepharim and Slithzerikai.Īfter Emperor Hawthorne was killed by the Hawthorne Assassins, Silvar was attacked by Empire Soldiers. Silvar was mostly at peace, commencing its trades peacefully. In the remake Escape from The Pit, there is also a dug out sewer level infested with worms being created by Droknarr of the Split-Tail Clan. A trade route was opened- both at land and sea, allowing the city to flourish even from its early years and to grow into a very important location decades later as well as becoming one of the six most important cities in Avernum. History Avernum 1/Avernum: Escape From The Pitīefore the events of Avernum 1 (and its remake), Silvar was built a few years after the exile of a bunch of humans in Avernum, including King Micah and The Five Council Members, as well as the three original members of the Triad- Solberg, X and Linda. 3.1 Trading with merchants and adventurers.1.1 Avernum 1/Avernum: Escape From The Pit. ![]() In the NW corner of the alcove in the west of the hall is a body with a scrap of vellum.
