"So shines a good deed in a weary world."

I'm very glad to see you putting out new videos after a long absence. I watch a lot of clock related videos, and yours stand out for their excellence in a number of ways - the clocks you show are unusual and interesting, you have some very sophisticated and rare machines in your shop, you admire craftsmanship of the original makers of the clocks and demonstrate quite a lot of it yourself, and your skill level is among the best. It is very easy to understand why the owner of a one-of-a-kind Bullock long case clock with nested bells made in 1740 would choose you to restore it - he obviously has come to the right person. Thank you for making these videos.

Beautiful clock. Sad to see it in such bad shape. Look forward to seeing it restored.

Thanks for the work that you do in making these videos Tommy, they really are interesting and it's like having a front row seat in your workshop.

Hello Tommy, A nice introduction to the clock... I look forward to seeing this one come back to life... Take care. Paul,,

Looking forward to this series!!!!

Marvelous clock! Looking forward to the rest of the video series!

What a beautiful clock, I look forward to the rest of the restoration It's a pleasure to watch your videos. Can't wait to see the next video thanks Tommy.

A very beautiful clock, just tell me what it's like to have one at home and sleep at night?

Wow what an interesting movement, I always love the thickness of the back and front plates of these precious master pieces how well made they were, I would be interested to know what would be the best chemicals or method to clean the pin barrel, must say the face is beautiful with all the extra features as well how lovely the case is, looking forward to part 2. Once again many thanks Tommy for the wonderful video. Jim from AUSTRALIA. ❤😊

Piękna praca. Ja czasem dorabiam części opraw do takich zegarów z blachy

Just been working on a nine bell John Halifax of London, but the pin barrel was not of this scale 🙂

I’m really looking forward to this series, thank you! You mention possibly Gillow as the case maker, would the be the same company as Waring and Gillow?

Indeed they would. I’m hypothesising that the case is BY Gillows, but comment upon the quality and how reminiscent it is of their work.

@@TommyJobson I think you might be right, we had some furniture by them when I was a child and the look and quality is very reminiscent of that furniture, especially the attention to practical detail as in the decoration not being attached to the door but the case. I know that some pieces are stamped, I remember seeing such a stamp on the bottom front edge of a draw of a chest of draws, perhaps there might be such a stamp on this hidden away somewhere? When you think warings were in Lancaster it’s not that far from Shropshire, at the least in terms of the U.K. it’s a close enough geographical location for it to be plausible I think.

I don't under stand why you would not clean the face, I don't think you should restore the face. All I see is a clock that needs cleaning, but its not my clock. I know that some people think it adds to the look of something old. It looks to be a very well made clock and the case was made by someone who had a lot of skill with wood. Can't wait to see it work when you are done.

Could the extra weight have been added when they changed the movement initially?

Quite possibly. I’m still thinking the weights are probably not original.

Like content. Less editing is fine.
