Any clock builders on the Wreck?`

IF you build wall clocks where do you get the movements? Are there any
high quality mechanical movements with chimes? IF I take the time to
build a clock I don't want to put in an electronic movement.

Any sources for gold leaf "Regulator" glass?

Why not email David Eisan? He builds clocks.

These folks seem to be very nice. I just had them rebuild a clock for
me. They might give you some pointers to a source.

Dave:

I know Klockit has already been suggested...you may also want to check
http://www.clockparts.com, and also http://www.emperorclock.com.
Clockparts seems to be low end, and Emperor is high end--heirloom
quality stuff. I wouldn't buy Emperor stuff--but only because it's
too nice to put into the crap I build (C:

David,

Thanks for the link! I found the kit which is very similar to a
Regulator clock I loved, which is no longer in my possession.
