Rack-and-Snail Striking and An Introduction to the Tall Case Clock
with Ken DeLucca
NAWCC Education Director
Designed for individuals with some background in clocks and their operation, this three-day workshop will cover in detail the operation of the rack-and-snail striking system. Using larger, English-style tall case clock movements to better see and understand this method of striking the hour, participants will also be introduced to the tall case or floor clock (called by some a grandfather clock). After a detailed review of the rack-and-snail striking method, participants will operate English-style tall case clock movements to better understand their functions and learn more about weight lines and cords; large, heavy pendulums and suspension springs; and their removal and replacement into and out of the case. Safety aspects concerning mounting a tall case clock to a supporting wall, along with safety concerns with moving large, heavy weights, will also be considered. Typical repair operations needed to return these movements to service will also be included. Reading assignments will be provided for each evening of the workshop.
Tools and Materials: All tools and materials will be provided. Please bring your own safety glasses and any magnification devices (visors) you may need. Safety glasses and magnification visors will be provided if needed but remain property of the NAWCC.
Enrollment: Limited to 6 participants
Instructor: Ken De Lucca
Price for Members: $850.00
Price for Nonmembers: $975.00

The cost of the course is just $850, the same as when offered in Columbia. A $100 non-refundable deposit is required to confirm your attendance, and can be paid online via the registration link on the website home page. The $750 balance will be due by February 15th, and a waiting list will be available when the class is sold out.
This three-day workshop will focus on disassembly and reassembly of the classic American-style time/strike movement—the “bread and butter” of many clock repair centers. The movement will be separated into its component parts, and participants will work with the time train, the strike train, and finally the complete movement. The movement will also be put “into beat.” Additionally, cleaning techniques and lubrication methods will be discussed.
