The making of a Grandfather Clock



The first rule of thumb of making any Long case clock is to have the movement first.  Many good woodworkers have made that mistake.  For this clock, I purchased the Kieninger 9 tube movement from Klockit below.  At $3,300 it is arguably the best new, mass produced movement available today. That cost includes the pendulum, weights, dial face.
