Attached is a photo of the Jones clock that I need help with. Movement which is correct is on my work table.I have made a couple of small repairs to the case.
Hello All,
I am in need of photos and measurements of the door trim pieces on a George Jones wall pin wheel regulator. I know that clockmogul has one but have not been able to get in touch.
Thanks in advance,
Randy
Hello All,
I recently acquired a George Jones pinwheel wall regulator. The case is missing the trim pieces at the sides of the door. Top and bottom. I am hoping that someone would take close up pictures with a tape. Thanks in advance for your help. I sent clockmogul a pm I know that he has the...
I was also interested in this clock, but sadly was not the high bidder. The problem that I saw with the case was the dial was too small for the opening. I did see some veneer damage but repairable. My intent was to make a new dial surround and repair the veneer. Unlike you I didn't have the case...
Hello,
Purchased a Gilbert #11 time only. The weight pulley board has been replaced. Did the time only model have the same pulley arrangement with multiple pulleys as the time and strike?
Thanks in advance.

Burkhard,
I have started applying the strips just like you suggested. The only difference is I am using a 1/2 x 19 brad to hold the wood in place. The brads will be covered by the label once all is complete.
Thanks for your suggestions.
Trying to repair the weight damage to a ST #1. Cut the strips individually 1/4"x 4" with notch to fit back board. Intent was to install the wood strips then veneer. The amount of sanding would be too much. Has anyone performed this repair and how was it done? I am going to next glue the strips...
Re: Pictures Self Winding 3 Pole Rotary
Thanks for the information. I understand now that a standard did exist until it was convenient to change. Probably going to be hard to find a case but I am in no hurry.
Thanks again,
Randy
The picture that I am referencing is the same one that you posted. I went to another site with the same picture but allowed me enlarge each works. That works would be the photo of the two pole works. The difference that I see with my untrained eye is the winding frame work on my works have more...
Everyone,
I went back on line and used the same photo supplied. I enlarged and printed the picture to compare the works shown.
The works I have are identical to the 2 pole rotary except it has 3 poles.
Seth Thomas logo in same position as the 2 pole
Self winding logo the same
Patent date...
I recently purchased a 3 pole rotary self winding works. After looking at the photos of the works on line, I believe it is the two pole rotary but this on has three poles. The works (seth Thomas) and the rotary attachment both have the same numbers 5244. Comments. Now looking for a case anyone...
Good point. I measured the outside of the edge to edge of the dial. I will measure the chapter ring when I get home.
One thing I forgot ask is what is the advantage of the upside down movement?
I believe that I have a Welch Spring & Co 30 day regulator #2 in very bad shape. I first though it was a Atkins 30 day extra but not so. The problem that I have is that the dial is almost 20" in diameter. All the descriptions I have seen are 18"dials. Did Welch offer this in a 20" dial? The...
