IF you build wall clocks where do you get the movements? Are there any high quality mechanical movements with chimes? IF I take the time to build a clock I don't want to put in an electronic movement.

Any sources for gold leaf "Regulator" glass?

David,

Thanks for the link! I found the kit which is very similar to a Regulator clock I loved, which is no longer in my possession.

. Clockparts seems to be low end, and Emperor is high end--heirloom quality stuff. I wouldn't buy Emperor stuff--but only because it's too nice to put into the crap I build (C:
