Growing up with my grandparents I was always intrigued by the mysterious wooden clock in their attic. It was in pieces so I wasn’t sure exactly what it looked like but I could tell it was an open design skeleton clock where you could see the gears and escapement. So naturally my gearhead self was fascinated. The legend behind the clock was that it was bought as a clock kit for my great-grandfather in the ‘80s. He was able to get it all together, but he passed away before he could get it fully running. So for 30 years it sat in that attic. It wasn’t until 3 years ago that I could try my hand at it, but being neither a clockmaker or horologist, I didn’t have much luck getting it to move longer than a couple minutes. But today I aim to change that!
