Dempsey Woodworking Grandfather Clock. Grandfather Clock 2. Can 4,9. 44. 0. 0 Intermediate. From a very young age I was fascinated with clocks, especially the big ones with those heavy weights and the moving parts. Their slow ticking had a calming effect while I was reading or just doing nothing. In those days I did not have a wristwatch or alarm clock. Only the man of the house had a pocket watch that was frequently compared with the time given by the main clock in the living room or hallway. And then there was the alarm clock next to the bed of mom and dad. When I woke up in the middle of the night and I wanted to know what time it was, the only solution was to stay awake and listen to the chiming of the main clock sometime, somewhere in the house. Making my own grandfather clock has been on my to do list for a long time. A close friend in South Africa had built one too. My mind was made up when I saw that one and that was in 1. In October 2. 00. I started seriously thinking about the project and doing some more research, which lasted some three months. The results of that can be found in the references section below. My clock case looks very similar to the Winchester Grandfather Clock of Oakside Classic Clocks which is not surprising because I like that style pictures up to 0.

Dominic Brindisi got hold of my drawings when I had barely started my own construction. He had laid his hands on an old Hermle 1. That certainly kept me on my toes to stay ahead and to keep the drawings up to date with the latest changes. We exchanged many emails discussing issues. Dominic had some limitations with respect to available woodworking machines, but he came up with good ideas to deal with that. Notice that he did not use glass in the waist sides, no arches at the top of the waist door and base hatch, and in order to ensure good sound he did the hood sides with scroll saw work that is covered on the inside with black speaker cloth. He used Min. Wax Special Walnut stain and finished the case with hand rubbed boiled linseed oil. And last, but not least, at a total cost of US 5. The Hermle movement uses chime rods that are mounted on a block that is visible in the back of the hood. In his own words, I cleaned and oiled the movement and checked for excessive bushing wear and all was within acceptable standards. Cut and Paste Activities.
