    Many people feel the Seth Thomas Clock with the Sonoran nesting bells in it sounds the best. Seth Thomas felt so strongly about the sound they personally bought the patent from the Sonora Company for use in certain of their clocks which were only made for about 20 years.
    I personally just like an old pre-1900's clock of just about any brand which has a clunky strike sound (and does so very quickly) to be the best. It drives most people crazy, but it just sounds like an old clock is supposed to sound to me. Many of the old "kitchen clocks" had such a sound.

  • @henryfroelich7042
    @henryfroelich7042 Před 4 měsíci

    In a clock chime I want a clean sounding chime. Some of these clock chimes are either too hurried or they have a palsy or a distracting sleigh bell sound. My favorites (for chiming function) are the Ridgeway, Howard Miller, and Sandringham chimes in that order. For my own taste the Westminster chime speed in an indoor clock should be set so that the sixteen bells at the first quarter ring about 16 or 17 seconds.
    Of course I know that the Big Ben clock tower quarter chimes are faster. They are utilitarian and not designed so much for aesthetic appeal that indoor clocks would have.

    You are a collector like me - but it's clear I don't know as much as you do. Your wide array of clocks looks like my dining room! LOL! They're fun! I have 70 or so total, but only 20 are chimmers. I have about 15 Anniversary clocks. All are second-hand from estate sales, The Goodwill, etc. I have learned a lot in their individual repairs and have spent a shit load on batteries. My most recent $20 purchase is a Howard Miller wall/pendulum with a beautiful wood carved outer case. Put 2 new D batteries in, fixed the wire for the chime.....but.....the hands stop working after 35 minutes! Why would a seemingly brand new clock have a bad Quartz movement already? Your kindness in answering this is very much appreciated. Thank You ♡

      Thank you for the support. Also to answer your question:
      I have not studied much on battery operated Westminster chime clocks but what I think you should do is at least purchase a new movement and read the instructions on how to get the movement in. I wish I could give you some better info and I apologize about that.

    I like the grandfather clock at the start of the video, although the Seth Thomas as always had a nice set of chimes also. Do you know where I can get a good set of rod chimes. I have a modern Hermle that had a dumpy set of chimes (toy piano sound) which I replaced with some extra junk chimes from a clock repairman which now sound beautiful, after retuning them. I have a triple chime grandmother with the later "toy piano" rods. I think the steel or bronze they use today is softer than many years ago, and so not as resonent. Thanks, Mike

  • @davidclauss4786
    @davidclauss4786 Před 4 lety +4

    Some very nice clocks but you need to adjust the hammers on some. They are not rebounding from the rods on strike and makes the chime sound flat due to a loss of resonance

    • @oneitalia2312
      @oneitalia2312 Před 4 lety

      How do you adjust the hammers?

    • @davidclauss4786
      @davidclauss4786 Před 4 lety +1

      It depends somewhat on the clock. But most of the ones there can be adjusted by just bending the arm of the hammer up just a bit to be sure the hammer impacts the bar or gong and returns to a position about 1/16 from the bar or gong after sounding. Some clocks have an adjustment screw that moves the hammer arms back and forth as it is turned. These are more common on older European made Grandfather clocks.@@oneitalia2312

  • @markkinsler4333
    @markkinsler4333 Před 4 lety +4

    The second one has bouncing hammers, which you can improve somewhat by increasing the space between hammer and chime bar (at rest.)
    Different hammer pads can change the 'attack' portion of each note rather radically; some of your older clocks probably have leather pads that have hardened over the years, and these are best replaced with plastic pads.
    On an old tambour (hump-back) mantel clock the bottom panel of the clock comprises the sounding board. These were thus made thinner and of a different wood than the remainder of the case, with the result that after a hundred years or so the glue that holds the edges of that bottom panel will fail, typically leaving the board attached with the original finishing nails. Alternatively, the bottom/sounding board will crack, typically right down the middle. About the best repair is to run wood glue around the perimeter of the bottom board and also into any cracks, though if the crack is really bad the board should likely be replaced. After the glue dries you'll find that the sound of your tambour clock is much improved.
