Clock Components Chosen and Assembled from A to Z.
Choose clock parts and constructing them into a fascinating timepiece is pleasing, joyous, and also fulfilling. Whether the clock components are of a standard or specialty nature, the do-it-yourselfer constructs his clocks such that they include the intended practical and aesthetic high qualities without the nonessential. The timepieces hence produced are considerable as treasures both yearlong and also for several years.
Working with clock components in this way is something that both the enthusiast as well as clock seller takes part in. The enthusiast's motive may be to make gift clocks, to utilize the hands creatively, and/or to understand a specialized feature or else inaccessible of the rack. The seller is possibly out to develop a niche market or to burnish a devoted following.
In both instances specialized components play an essential duty because of their uniqueness. You will not see them in items offered by large clock makers.
It is popular to group the components right into different categories. There are clock movements or motors, clock hands, clock dials, as well as devices.
The movement obtains general timing from a quartz crystal as well as figures out the amount of turning for each and every shaft (with each shaft sporting a hand). The dial supplies an adjusted background for the hands to aim at. Accessory parts expand capability (e.g., sweep second hands, 24-hour display screens, temperature level, tide) and/or ornament type (e.g., playing chimes or opening pendulums).
The wonderful aspect of this venture is that pretty much any individual can do it. You just require the barest ability to work with your hands. You don't also have to outfit yourself with a bunch of expensive tools.
In addition, there are a lot of sources to call on for help. The Internet is flooded with educational video clips on the complete range of subjects, including clockmaker how-to. These are indispensable products for both the neophyte and also the veteran.
The Internet is likewise ideal both for recognizing a maker and/or supplier of the parts you aim to pick and for purchasing directly. In limiting the candidates, take into consideration breadth of selection, craftsmanship top quality, where the components are really made, and also the number of years the company has actually been in business.

Clock Making Parts
Since 1971 Clock Parts has been a manufacturer of mechanisms, inserts and dial faces. Our specialty in clock movements
and motors coupled with all the necessary replacement components bring our customers the highest quality, advanced
technology and affordable wholesale pricing.
As a family owned private company located in Culver City, California, we have maintained a tradition of excellent customer
service and quality components. Our quality is a result 40 plus years of experience of being one of the top rated
manufacturers in the world.
This experience has guided us in the designing and engineering of all of our components. Our customers look to us to bring
to them new and inventive products that made their projects and businesses stand out.
Clock Movements
Our Auto Set movement is an example of this type of innovative approach. This movement has eliminated the need for
atomic movements. One reason high torque atomic motors were used in projects was because they automatically adjusted
for the spring and fall time changes.
The problem with the atomic movements was the reliability of their receiver module to receive the spring and fall time
changes and, thereby, make the proper time adjustment. Atomic movements’ receiver module and the AM signal broadcast
has always been troublesome. Our auto set motor solved this problem.
This motor allows our customers to build clocks that can be placed anywhere without the need for the movement to receive
a time broadcast to display accurate time. The Auto Set motor has the daylight saving time changes programmed into the
motor so it occurs automatically. There is no need to receive a radio broadcast. We offer an extensive line of clock
movements.
Our approach as a company goes beyond good engineering and design. A main focus point for us as a company is
customer service. We are always concern on how well we provide customer service to our patrons.
Clock Dials
Our customer service starts with informative videos on our website to help and assist our customers in the proper selection
of motors, hands and dial faces.
Our blog section on our website provides additional information for our customers to read. We couple these informative
blogs and videos with technical telephone support.
Our comprehensive selection of battery operated quartz motors will make sure you have the perfect movement for your DIY

large selection of hour, minute and second hands.

movements. Our hand selection includes different size hands, shape and length. The selection allows you to select the
