February 2009 - Chapter 72 Meeting

Our Chapter Meeting in February and the Pocket Watch Workshop in March were very well attended. Meetings are always fun because the business stuff is conducted on the alternate month, leaving the afternoon to activities, presentations, show and tell, mart and the like.

A selection of electric and electronic clocks shown at the Chapter 72 February meeting. The Cosmic is a little known Australian made synchronous clock.
Another clock from the meeting, and some photos of the March pocket watch workshop. Watch Restoration workshop Part 1 was fully attended. It was essential to have your watch and tools inspected before the workshop to make sure you start off on the right foot.
The workshop was a lot of fun, some scrambling on the floor for lost bits, some unsuccessful at recovery of these small parts, but a great day and thanks to the instructors. Everybody is looking forward to Part 2 in September
