I find it odd how some bells go up wrong. Maidstone tenor is one example. They have a special home made device attached to a rope to swing the clapper over.
I guess it's a case of the physics of the swing of the clapper vs the swing time of the bell, together with techinique of the ringer to slightly check the bell at the start of ringing up to ensure the bell goes up right. Either can cause bells to go up wrong. The old wrought iron clappers at Grantham required two ringers on the 11th (9th as it was) and three on the 12th (10th as it was) to get them up right, the newer nylon and wooden shafted clappers just need one.
@@DavidBraunton well you're certainly right about checking the bell I suppose if you were a Devon call changing ringer where they have about 4 on the tenor you would probably let Liverpool tenor to go up right. I think perhaps 4 would struggle on that bemoth of a bell
@@kirchenglockentv it's not that common, I believe it tends to be Catholic churches, and where the bells are rung by motors, rather than humans. The Catholic Cathedral in Liverpool does.
La seconda non riesce a partire perché non danno corda, la frenano anticipando la tirata verso il basso. Inoltre a differenza del campanone il battaglio non e' controbilanciato ma a caduta.
The second bell will go up 'right' of with flying clapper, but it requires a significant amount of checking when it is started to be swung. At this time I was ringing on my own (due to covid) and couldn't get enough force to check the bell/clapper, as I was also ringing the larger bell and keeping that swinging.
The bell swinging across has nylon shafted clapper, no counterweight, the bell ahead has a wooden shafted clapper. The reason the first bell to ring is 'going up right' is I had my full body weight to check it at the start, the second bell is being swung one handed and without being able to check it at the start.
Sort of. The other bell being rung is the 11th, and the clapper isn't going to the top of the bell like it should as it was "got up wrong", which is where the ringer didn't pull down backstroke quickly so it chimes properly. This issue effects big bells, and is fixed by knocking the clapper over to the thet side of the bell whilst up so it rests kn the correct side
There's something wrong with one of your clappers, they're not striking the bell properly like swinging back and forth that could be an issue right there and that gotta be fixed at some point.
@orionharmon6017 the clapper that isn't swinging fully, just means the bell wasn't pulled down hard enough at the start causing it to not do what it is meant to
In order to get the bells with flying clappers (hitting the upper edge), rather than the bell hitting the clapper, you need to apply force to check the bell and hence get the clapper hitting the upper edge. At the time of the video, only one person was allowed ringing, so I had to ring both bells on my own; I'm not strong enough to check the second bell with only one hand and also whilst still swinging the first bell with my other hand this takes away how much force I could apply on my own.
I love how you christmas decorations on the bells
The "continental" ringing is very beautiful, it's good to do change ringing and this, sometimes, I think.
I like continental ringing style the most

@@DavidBrauntonDo you have churches in the UK where its normal to Ring the Bells in european Style?

If you want to see what happens in the ringing chamber, below, to make this happen: th-cam.com/video/qzATEFyOM9I/w-d-xo.html

Will the other bells get wooden shafted clappers? Also what is the hammer on the 11th used for? Happy New Year's!
Happy New Year, unlikely on the wooden clappers at present. The other hammer will be the clock hammer
@@DavidBraunton What bells have the hammers?

Do they use Westminster chimes

Wow 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Cool
Bell 1 has a counterbalanced clapper whereas bell 2 has a falling clapper. Am I correct?

th-cam.com/video/NKjapSPJX68/w-d-xo.html in this video both bells are up right, hopefully you can see neither clapper is counter balanced.
@@DavidBraunton Interesting! Thank you very much for the details.
Yes you are right
I like this ringing style and is it rare for a English church to do this style of bell ringing
No it's still the normal English bell set up but thay have not been rung up fully.
It is sort of weird the temor clapper only goes to where it is swinging to.
Sort of.

Normally you wouldn't ring both bells single handedly, you can then use your full body weight to get the clapper to strike the upper side of the bell.
@@DavidBraunton Hmm makes sense to me 🤷🏽♂️💁🏽♂️
@orionharmon6017 the clapper that isn't swinging fully, just means the bell wasn't pulled down hard enough at the start causing it to not do what it is meant to
@@kaidenmccreath4269 Right!
@orionharmon6017 do you get it now? If not I can try and explain better
I like bells with falling clapper and i have a homemade bell with falling clapper
The bell on the left is 1.23 tones the bell on the right is 1.62 tones must of got that wrong
But the way the ropes fall is the other way around in the ringing chamber below.
Aok
Why is one of the tenors clappers a falling clapper
In order to get the bells with flying clappers (hitting the upper edge), rather than the bell hitting the clapper, you need to apply force to check the bell and hence get the clapper hitting the upper edge.

So both have flying clappers but since you had to ring both at the same time you couldn’t swing the bell hard enough so the clapper would fly
