Doesn’t look much like the one I patterned it by but such is life. They have the same size pin at the bottom and are the same length. πŸ˜‰

Got it roughed out with the metal tools and then switched to the wood turning chisels. Finished out pretty good. Stain is drying now.

Got it on and have it close to in time. Just finished turning a new finial for the top of the case. Used the metal lathe to turn it on.

Made the new brass hanger for the pendulum rod. Only broke one saw blade cutting the brass. New one cut much better anyway. πŸ˜‰

For now am calling it a night and hitting the sack, so till later, folks… πŸ˜‰

Have either 3 or 4 clocks left to fix. Gaining on the back log. And getting a little faster with them too. Think I may do the Sessions next.

Going to make a adjustable rod for it in the morning. May disassemble & bush one hole on the strike side. Will decide after it runs a bit.

The one I worked on today has a home made temporary pendulum on it as it was missing its original one when I got it.

Just had 3 clocks strike midnight together. Think I have them regulated about right. πŸ™‚ The Korean clocks were 2 of them.
