i think i heard this video in Rhythmic Injections new song "belling songing (for edwin)". i think it samples audio from this video, and they mean no disrespect. i think you should let edwin know so he can take a listen to it for himself
Ver essas máquinas funcionando me encanta, porque eu já restaurei alguns relógio aqui no Brasil modelo Michelini da década de 1936, 1940 um deles parado durante 36 anos ás 17:36, no dia 07/07/2007 ás 17:36 quase 37 minutos coloquei para funcionar, outro parado durante 13 anos ás 07:23 minutos também eu restaurei por completo para preservar a história dos relógios Michelini iniciada em 1909 até 1969 na Fabrica em São Paulo uma Patente Italiana., Agora estou em uma empreitada difícila mas não impossível estou restaurando um relógio Holandês antigo 100 anos parado a 40 anos na torre da Paróquia São Sebastião na pequena cidade de Avaí/SP, é único na nossa região
I assume your Mantle clock has no chime? If it doesn't then you can wind it back but if it does you will end up with the chime out of sync with the shown time.
Lovely old clock. Shame they went to automatic winding. The bells could use a good cleaning, and it sounds like the strikers need an adjustment. Some closer shots of the mechanism would be nice.
At least it isn't fully electric It is a small Shame it has been converted to electric wind up, but at least the entire clock isn't powered by electric.
Douglas - it's at the bottom of Finch Road, just below Crellin's Hill. - Very close to Strand Street and the car park, so a good place to visit when on a run to the street! :)
The weighted arm at the front is part of a maintaining system, sometimes known as a 'bolt and shutter', which keeps the clock running while it is being wound. The arm is designed to prevent the winding handle from being attached unless it is raised, and the action of raising it both 'winds' and activates the maintaining mechanism - so however forgetful is the person doing the winding, the clock will keep the time. Also losing 5 minutes per week! There's obviously something wrong, it needs adjustment and repair by a qualified clock-maker.
I used to wind one of E. J. Dents later later clocks. The maintainig mechanism was automatic and used 4 circumferential springs between the cable drum and the outgoing cog. It involved a second ratchet and took me ages to work out how it was done. It also had the pendulum at the front which was unusual but convenient. It was a very expensive clock apparently, but a very accurate one.
Perhaps an enthusiastic group of young healthy individuals with motivations of history or religion could be assembled to wind these tower clocks. Give them an order to belong to and maybe a certificate for their efforts. It would be an honour to wind such a clock and a form of physical fitness exercise that does useful work. My guess is insurance concerns would prevent that from happening.
ਬੁਹਤ ਵਧੀਆ ਲੱਗੀ ਇਹ ਪੁਰਾਣੇ ਸਮੇਂ ਦੀ ਚਰਚਾ ਘਰ ਵਿਚ ਲੱਗੀ ਪੁਰਾਤਨ ਟਾਈਮ ਦੱਸਣ ਵਾਲੀ ਇਹ ਇਨੀਂ ਮਸ਼ੀਨਰੀ ਦੀ ਵੀਡੀਓ ਸ਼੍ਰੀ ਮਾਨ ਜੀ ਥੌਡਾ ਧੰਨਵਾਦ ਜੀ
3:55 love that Westminister Chime cant believe its been around since 1849

what a great video. I always stop every year on holidays to hear the clock chime.
Wonderful Machine

That mechanism is so much simpler than a full carillon, and it even has the nomenclature posted :)
The same clock of Bampton church
Same key and everything.
what would happen if you turn hanfd back wards on this clock i do that with mantle clocks 1 time a year

Building needs maintenance to preserve the heritage of history. Such master pieces of clocks can't be reproduced.

Where is that

Das ist eine sehr gut gepflegte Uhr. Wie genau geht die?
