humungus clock

[lonesomebob]

If any of you saw the really big clockworks on ebay, I bought it! Man oMan is it a whopper. appears to be kit built and in poor repair. some gears appear to be missing. If anyone has a plan for this clock,I will attempt to post photo later .or any good ideas how to figure out ratios from a poor start, I am listening. Bob

The pictures are in my album "Big Clock". Do you know whose plans these were and how to find them? Bob

Having found the photos, I thought I would supply the link (http://www.woodworkforums.com/album.php?albumid=146&pictureid=1324)for others to follow .

Were any teeth broken as it looks like the cogs were cut from a single piece of timber leaving some teeth liable to break easily?

I think you will find that this is a Thomas clock for which plans can be found at
www.clockplans.com/page2.html (http://www.clockplans.com/page2.html) . I have built one of these from plans obtained from the USA and it works just fine..
If you search this site for "My Wooden Clock Movement" you will find three pictures of my one.
