Movements on the shelf
| Movement | State | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Eight-day mantel, count-wheel strike | running | Two bushings on the strike side; gains about a minute a week. |
| Wall regulator, deadbeat escapement | running | Suspension spring replaced. Beat took three evenings. |
| Rack-strike mantel | apart | Strikes twelve at every hour. Rack tail bent; waiting for patience. |
| Wind-up alarm, pin-pallet | sulking | Runs on its back, stops on its feet. Probably the balance staff. |
| Carriage clock, platform escapement | not touched | Platform goes to someone with better eyes and finer tools. |
Parts come from estate lots and the occasional flea market. Most of them came with a story that nobody remembers any more.
