We'll send shipment and tracking information as soon as any order ships. Small items will ship via small parcel UPS or Fedex, and large shipments will ship with the freight carrier or specialty delivery company of our choosing.
Pendulum clock update#
We do our best to ship products as quickly as possible, but sometimes the info presented on our website becomes outdated before we can update it. If you have a long driveway most freight trucks cannot deliver onto the driveway. If you're out of range, then Economy means curbside freight delivery.

All small parcel shipments are delivered by a common carrier (Fedex, UPS, USPS). Customers will have the option to pay extra to deliver out of range on a case by case basis.Įconomy Shipping Definition: Economy Shipping levels vary by region and item size. We will waive any cancellation fees if an order is out of range and we cannot deliver it. Out of range deliveries may require quantity minimums or be undeliverable. There may be some remote locations such as islands or mountain areas that are excluded and considered "out of range". Those locations in addition to international shipments will be quoted on a case by case basis.įreight/ Oversized: The following states are within our shipping range for oversized items and orders, and they always ship free: CT, DE, DC, FL, GA, IL, MD, MA, MI, NJ, NY, NC, OH, PA, SC, VA. Small Parcel: We ship small parcel items nationwide excluding AK, HI, and some remote locations.
Quickship items have a lead time of 1-2 weeks for freight and 3-5 days for small parcel. Lead times for in stock items range between 1-6 weeks depending on the origin warehouse location. If an item shows a specific quantity, then that means it's in stock. The best aspect about the pendulum clock is their nostalgic appearance and age-old efficiency.Please double check with our staff via chat, email, of phone to confirm product availability and lead times. Advanced metallic pendulums and weights were introduced. The later clocks were a bit simpler to manufacture due to the introduction of better alloys for gears and formulas for setting dimensions of gears. The earliest wooden clocks such as the German cuckoo clocks and grandfather clocks were the most difficult to manufacture as they were made up of wood, and large number of trials were required to perfect them. The conventional ‘ticktock’ sound is made by the escapement sliding into the teeth of the final gear. The swinging of the pendulum activates the escapement, which controls the movement of the final gear. This two-toothed gear is connected into the final gear that turns the arms of the clock. The fixed point of the pendulum goes into a two-toothed gear known as escapement. This turning would have been totally uncontrolled in the absence of the pendulum. The weight turns the gears that are attached to the drum. The last part that comes into the picture is the connection between the gear system and the pendulum. The spring driven clocks also have the same mechanism, the only difference being that they are driven by a wound up spring. The minute arm moves with a greater speed than the hour arm. The gears are designed in such a manner that they maintain the speed of the arms of the clock.
The drum is connected to a set of gears (also known as the trains) that make the arms of the clock move.
In weight driven cuckoo clocks, a solid weight is suspended by a chain which goes around a drum when the clock is wound up.
The German cuckoo clocks are usually weight driven. There are two variants of pendulum clocks, namely the weight driven ones and the spring driven ones. The second step is quite simple, but very important.
