MANTEL CLOCKS ARE A FASINATING TIMEPIECE
Some Of My Mantel Clocks Have About The Same Type Of Movements. Every Company Does Them A Little Different. |
|
SETH THOMAS MOVEMENT
This is a movement out of my Seth Thomas Mantel Clock that I got at an antique shop. This will run for about 1 hour and quit. I am letting it wind all the way down and start with a couple of winds at a time. It is in really good shape. This has no bent gear wheels and will strike on the hour and half hour as it should. Just won't keep running for more than an hour or two at the most.

INGRAHAM EIGHT DAY MANTEL CLOCK
This Is Another One That Belongs To My Girlfriend And It Is Spotless On The Inside But Won't Stay Running. |

SESSIONS MANTEL CLOCK
This Sessions Clock Runs Like A Gem. Someone Keeps Forgetting To Wind It Every Couple Of Weeks When It Dies. After It Is Wound It Runs Great. This Is Also My Girlfriends Clock That Was Her Mom's Clock. |
SPACE SHUTTLE DESK CLOCK
I used a couple pieces of scrap lumber to build this clock. I had a picture of a lift-off of a shuttle that I got when I went to Florida to watch a lift-off but, was canceled. I got a bunch of postcards and pictures that I used along with a quartz movement and some numbers. It was coated with a clear decopodge and let to dry for 24 hours then assemblied the clockworks and installed a battery and its history from there. Its still running. |

HOMEMADE MANTEL CLOCK WITH QUARTZ
This Was A Plan That Come In A Magizine That I Subscribe To And Uses 3 Pieces Of Cut Glass And A Framework For The Glass To Fit Into. I Used A Quartz Clockworks That I Got From Klockit Company And Spent A Rainy Weekend Making This. |
SETH THOMAS MANTEL CLOCK
This Is The Housing For The Movement Above In Picture 1. It Does Have Some Dings And Scrapes In It But,You Got To Look Carefully For Them. |
