Just finished servicing this regulator. Customer’s mom found it on the side of the road in the 60s and had a custom case built for it. Just needed some love to get running again. New cable, couple bushings, oil, and adjustment and it’s running great now. #clocks #clockrepair

A seamless restoration of a high-value broken and cracked alabaster clock face. Recreating the aging effect required multiple layers of airbrush painting, combining both opaque and translucent finishes.

A book called "Clock Repairing as a Hobby: an illustrated how-go guide for the beginner by Harold C. Kelly.
What is referred to as a "regulator" clock. It is a drop down octagonal design meaning that the wooden case the clock is in is a octagonal shaped frame with a drop down leaf on the bottom where the pendulum would hang behind a little door. On this clock the glass that would show the pendulum behind it has the word "Regulator" painted on in fancy font framing the shape of the dropped down leaf. The clock face is behind a circular domed glass door framed in a metal band. The numerals are roman and the minute numerals on the outside of the roman ones are arabic. The clock dial has two winding arbors, one for winding the time and one for winding the striking mechanism (which makes the clock chime at each out and half hour if the clock was working). The brand is Verichron but it isn't easy to make out as the hands are blocking the writing on the dial.
This is what's referred to as an Anniversary Clock. The reason is because, when working right, the wind lasts for around 400 days and is rewound once a year, thus is being the anniversary of its last wind. Visually, this clock is underneath a glass dome. It has a gold dials with roman numbering, each number in black and backed in white which is a nice contrast to the ornate golden dial. It has small black hands which also stand out pretty nice against the background of the dial. It is on a stand inside the dome with a pendulum that rotates instead of swings back and forth. The pendulum has four weighted balls and would rotate around and then around the other way to drive the clock. The base of the clock which the glass dome sits on is round also gold and the feet are tiny adjustable gear shapes. On the dial of the clock is a small area inscribed "Seth Thomas" who is the creator of the clock. It isn't easy to read from the picture.
#Horology and #ClockRepair continue to be available to me at my beckoning.
I was gifted a (non-working) regulator clock at an antique's store.
I found both books I wanted at a used book store and they were the only ones they had on clock repair.
I'm waiting for the part where it gets too hard.

Watching a thing about Paule Vezelay and now I’m remembering the loveliness of barrage balloons. Time to clean the clock case up a bit in prep for the great reunification of face and body #clockrepair
