Hey, William, I know its pretty straight forward the way you have laid this out for us but if I am to be as candid as I can be, the way you have gone about it would have never occurred to me. It took actually seeing the way it developed every step before I understood that the bend to secure it to the clock plate was not a twisty thing but just a place to be flat so it could be secured. Many thanks because this is not as complicated as I believed it to be- and using a piece of clock spring, letting the hardness out then restoring the temper after making it right, I appreciate that you took the time to share this with us. Regards, Tukat

exactly what we are trying to accomplish here, an easy reference to aid in clock parts making.
I am a hands on and visual learner myself. We were hoping the photos and videos have a positive effect. By your response…I think we are heading in the right direction. Stay tuned for more to come….Thank you, William
