A detailed step-by-step guide to getting started in clock repair based on a Smiths Enfield mantel clock

@jeremydoddjd There is a hand/pointer at the other end of the arbor or a square? Seems strange the arbor isnt supported at the other end, does the case interact with it in any way? I guess you can rivet your rise-and-fall cam on there and as you say, make a see-saw type device...

The @heritage_crafts are doing an incredible job to promote and champion endangered crafts.

⌚️#Watchmaking is still on the red list, so we wanted to share our George Daniels watchmaking titles with you and do our bit to preserve this #craft too. Check them out in our bio 👆

The @Wren300M Stone Carving Competition @HolySepulchreUK has come to a close. What a incredible demonstration of skill and creativity. All 11 stone carvers have created remarkable Wren-inspired designs. Congratulations goes to Jessica Eyre the winner.

@Figensport Yup, craft skills don't die out, they just move around. The structure, process and approach to skill of this kind remain, the superficial output changes over time and place.

@A_Mechanician @WorldbyRead Continue to teach and share and encourage others. I guess you get to a stage where it doesnt get any 'better' in terms of exposure to objects. Names are nice of course but I think there is a wider 'calling'.

@WorldbyRead @TobiasBirch @York_Minster Since my @westdeancollege dissertation on the subject of clock lines, I have made a case for the use of natural gut or a simulated/synthetic equivalent on domestic clocks, for what I believe there are technical/mechanical and arguably, aesthetic reasons. https://t.co/HhseQw9vP5

@jeremydoddjd Lovely.

@rooneyvision Yup, they'd have been meeting at Harvey Nics for a cheeky glass of something fizzy before taking the kids up South Ken for the afternoon?

Nice job for a ☔️☔️☔️ day. Suspension spring for a late eighteenth century clock. Yes, you can buy them for a fiver but where's the fun in that? #clock #craft #conservation #Making #Materials @clockrepairbook https://t.co/hMglMAJWvg

Not that I'm aware of. Many books out there that look at particular areas of interest. One of the best and most accessible research resources is a membership to @thestoryoftime Their free-to-members journal and the Journal of the @clockandwatchuk is fully digitised, searchable.

"The domestic act of folding sheets with maternal figures on a Sunday afternoon is a familiar memory for people like us...As a child it becomes a space to access knowledge that one can't find or receive in any other context."
