Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
One commenter links the author's clock post while discussing wood versus acrylic for a keyboard holder. HN readers mostly reference it as a woodworking project, with no comment on the writing itself.

What Hacker News says?
I'll play with acrylic at some point. But I want this to be wood to match other things in my office: desk (not pictured), clock [1], various other items. It's a good point about the soot, but I don't mind doing a little bit of sanding to finish it. :) [1]: https://cceckman.com/writing/aclock/
