• Upcoming updates
    Over the next couple of weeks we will be performing software updates on the forum. These will be completed in small steps as we upgrade individual software addons. You might occasionally see a maintenance message that will last a few minutes at most.

    If we anticipate an update will take more than a few minutes, we'll put up a notice with estimated time.

    Thank you!

    Quarter Hour Chime Speed

    The quarter hour chimes on my 2004 Howard Miller movement (Kieninger MS001) are very slow compared to other similar movements. The top of the hour chimes take 23 seconds to complete. The movement looks very clean and all of the bushings look good. While I am no clock expert is there a way to...

    Help Magnetic chime rods

    I delivered and set up an '80's era Howard Miller single chime GF clock at a lady's house recently. When I set the new time, the westminster chimes sounded terrible.

    Help FMS movement constantly strikes.

    Hi, This FMS movement continues to strike and does not stop. I can see that the last tooth on the rack is smaller than the rest and does not allow the gathering pallet (?) to advance to the last tooth on the rack. I have also been adjusting the spring tension on the rack (last picture) with...
