Time to learn something new
great way to look at it, might as well try to fix the old one and if that does not work to your satisfaction then you can make a new one. Is there a rush on the job? If remember correctly you have a lathe big enough to do this? , could be possible to find a existing barrel that can be refashioned to match this one and if all else fails start fresh. William
No there is no rush to the job. I am retired and only working on clocks as a hobby. I started reading about soldering, but for the moment it is still confusing.
