Banoland asked:
A couple of things here. First of all, just wondering if anyone knows the best brand of Grandfather Clock (Sligh, Ridgeway, Howard Miller, etc.)–if they’re all just the same, if you’re getting a used one.

Also, any opinions on the timing of the chiming? (Umm . . .) In other words, is it better to have them chime every 15 minutes or every half hour? Any advantages or disadvantages for either? We know we want one that shuts off at night.
Thanks!

It is 4 horses with a covered wagon clock on wood base. It uses a 15 watt light. The horses and wagon are a medal.

CSN1153 asked:
I inherited a grandfather clock from my grandmother. It hasn’t been serviced in about 5-10 years. How much would it cost for it to be cleaned and all that and to have the weights balanced? Also, if you know any particular clock shops, leave the name and address and/or a website. Thank you!

We have a ridgeway grandfather clock bought in 1971 for $1700 by our grandfather. It is in perfect condition and works great. I cannot find any way to find out what to sell it for.

Substitute Teacher asked:
Not a big deal, but I own a small clock purchased from Pottery Barn. The exterior is wood, painted yellow. Is it acceptable to use wall paint to repaint the clock’s exterior? Should I sand before repainting?

Carmen T asked:
The finish you can see a shine in the back ground but the rest is a dull build up of wax. Can anyone help me out with this. I just had the clock restored to working order but he didn’t clean the outside of it disappointed in that area of restoration.

I have an 18 (!) station time clock made by Hardie, maybe about 12 years old. It is acting up, and I think it needs to be replaced. Is it a difficult job? What do I need to be careful of?
