Chris, if you move the gong hammer slightly away from the gong it will sound better, at the moment when it strikes the hammer is dampening the gong as its resting on the gong.

[@TheUltimateRecycler]

Yeah, I did think of that while editing the clip. I'll see if I can tweak it a bit. Thanks mate 😊👍

Thank you! I watched every minute. I can now start on my journey with my 17 clocks! Just have to get mainspring clamps and a spring winder and whatnot. I had zero confidence before, but now you've given me hope :) Cheers from Brisbane.

[@TheUltimateRecycler]

Thanks Rusty, I'm glad you enjoyed the series. Clocks with enclosed mainsprings are a different kettle of fish. And chiming clocks do have another train of wheels to content with as well as more complicated linkages! Time only clocks with open mainsprings would be the best to start on!

Very nice clock Chris and nice job servicing it. If you do end up getting tooling to rebush the bearings you will need to also get some half glasses to sit on the end of your nose. I love watching Steve Fletcher on the Repair Shop repairing clocks, he is a true craftsman. I did service a mantel clock a few years ago and found lifting the hammer away from the gong when at rest sounded better as it didn't mute the resonance from the spring. I have no idea if that is right or it should sit on the spring like you have. I might have to adjust mine if that's the case 🤔🙂

[@TheUltimateRecycler]

Thanks Dave. Yes, the hammer does need to be adjusted a little to allow the spring more resonance 👍😊
