  1. From the album: Work In Progress

    Added two posts to clock frame. These will hold the arbors(axles) of the clock. They are removable to make it possible to do the work for the arbors.

    Clock frame in fire

    From the album: Work In Progress

    Heating corners to allow peening.
  3. From the album: Work In Progress

    This is my clock frame almost done. Just need to peen 2 more corners, wire brush it and oil finish it.
  4. From the album: Work In Progress

    This picture shows steady progress on the clock. The top crossbar in the middle of the frame has been added. I expect to actually secure the frame together within a few days.

    End pin

    From the album: Work In Progress

    This shows one of 4 end pins that will hold vertical frame parts that will in turn hold the axles for the clock. To the right is another part that is held in place by a wedge.
  6. From the album: Work In Progress

    This photo shows two supports hanging from the frame. These supports will hold a rod that goes from time keeping side of clock to striking side of train. One of the supports is held in by a wedge which allows the part to be fabricated at a later time.
  7. From the album: Work In Progress

    The second strike support arm includes a slot for the pin that will hold it to the frame. One strike support arm is peined in, the other support arm is held in by a pin in its slot. This allows it to be removed for parts to be worked on and fine tuned.
