About this title

Synopsis

This book sets out to describe the manufacture of an eight-day rack striking longcase clock, but achieves more than this. The popular eight-day longcase movement was for years the backbone of the traditional English clockmaking industry and anyone who successfully makes one of these clocks is more than equipped to move on to the more sophisticated designs.
