    Brianw I think we have all been there at one time or another. Sometimes I find myself with tunnel vision even today after over 30 yrs. I remember some years ago I had a similar situation where the clock stopped after running for 3 to 5 minutes. I was sure it was the verge depthing. I don’t know how many hours I spent adjusting them up and down to no avail. What I finally found was the lever that lifted to set it to strike on the hour and half hour had a bad spot on it worn in it. I took it apart, filed, cleaned it up and polished it. It has been running in my house now for over 30 yrs. I have cleaned and oiled it 3 times during that time. So yes we have all been there and yes when you finally find the problem it is one of those slap the forehead and say duh moments! 😆
