Our other clients include woodworkers, clockmakers, and craftsmen worldwide. Our standard products include movements for tall clocks, Massachusetts shelf clocks or banjo/patent time pieces, and bespoke regulators and skeleton clocks. Ask us about custom fabrication.

Lindow Rose Engine
The Lindow Rose Engine is a mid-sized machine that is loosely patterned off of traditional American machines meant to bring rose engine turning to a broader market by having a machine in the mid-price level. This allows anyone with a serious interest to be able to afford one. While the machine is beautiful in its own right, there is no attempt at beauty for beauty’s sake, making it a simple and practical machine. It is a medium-duty machine allowing it to be used for a wide array of work.
