I'm about to dig into this Bellmatic. These are buggers to work on, and this one is in about the worst condition I've ever come across. I'm wondering if I should start looking for a donor movement now before I even start, haha.
Just fill it with flitz then start winding it… what’s the worst that could happen? (Insert evil laugh)I'm about to dig into this Bellmatic.

It couldn't hurt it any worse than it already is.Just fill it with flitz then start winding it… what’s the worst that could happen? (Insert evil laugh)
I just took the calendar plate off and alarm parts went flying. I guess that's why it didn't work before, lol. Whoever was in here before only put about 1/2 the parts in right, and as soon as I took the cover plate off - PING!!!! Found them all though. This thing sucks.....
That's the plan. We'll see how long it takes to get it done though. I already placed a parts order tonight. Will have to probably wait at least a week or two on delivery out of England via Royal (Snail) Mail.Are you filming this one? I’d love to see it running.
