I seen a few photos on the net but not looking the same. The painting shows a bird and that bird moves with the pendulum, so it has to be the original painting. Or? The orange/wood on the top part to the right, fell of, but I have it. The only parts that I can see that have been changed is the line, lock and hinges. One of the weights is falling apart under the tape. Under follows a lot of pictures. The text on the door tells that the first owner was born 1699 and died 1775. Then there is a list until our times.
I do have a problem and you can see the picture of the pendulum. For it to work it has to go to the left, more then the brass part allows. I think I know this has to be fixed by bending the arm on the back of the clock, here seen on picture 5? Correct me if I’m wrong.
I have red the two texts that Brian has wrote about the maker (found it online and don’t know Brian but was told he wrote them) and I could see that he found 5 that is older then mine and 37 that is younger. That text say Barnard started making clocks 1733 and made 26 every year. That will make my clock from 1741 if he started on number 200. If it is 300 it’s about 7 years and not 11 (1737). I am in Sweden so that’s perhaps why he didn’t find this one.
