EM-Clocks

Electro Magnetic Clocks
Or clocks which you do not have to wind up all the time.

Some of them are pretty old and cool.
Some of them are coyote-ugly.
These are the ones you want to get at.
Ebay....
Inside, they're all masterpieces.
So chuck away the gold painted boxes and give them a new life.

this is left

make a new frame and test...
and make it in stainless steel the second time because that banana thingy is.
yes.
well.
A magnet


on a more stable base

A different type, also electro mechanical.
A battery moves a weight up each time it reaches the end of it's stroke

And it chimes too

Still to do a new glass cage.
