Congratulations on the nice clock patterns you have chosen to cut out.
On the Williamsburg please let us know if you find a pendulum movement unit to work on it without the bob banging on the insides of the clock. I stack sawed only two of that one and found that the body is too narrow for the recommended movement . I finally and very reuctantly had to use some foam to deaden the knocking sound.
Shortly after the Williamsburg pattern was made and the problem with the narrow body was discovered, somebody came up with an almost identical pattern called the Manchester except with a wider body so the recommended hardware works just fine and the pendulum bob never touches the sides. .
I went on to make over a dozen of the Manchester clocks in various solid woods and several in stained baltic birch in various shades like walnut and oak and cherry. . One of them is shown here and you will recognize how similar it is to the Williamsburg .  |

Welcome to the group Heihec. Glad you found us here, and of course it's always a nice addition to see another Canadian with us. We have a few from the Barrie through to Windsor here in Ontario alone.
I'm confident you will make some friends here who enjoy the same interests in scrolling as yourself. Please be sure to set up an album in the gallery and post photos of your work for us to admire.
Take care
Toni

| Hi Heihic
A warm welcome to the club all the way from Scotland as you can see advice is always around the corner. If you can't find the answer (about scrolling) here then it's not worth knowing.
Graham.

| Howdy Heihic,
I'm from the Southwest end of Ontario, near Chatham, and dropped it to say welcome. Looking forward to seeing some pics of your finished work. William Youngs' clock pics are wonderful.
Andy
