[SEL] Sessions Clock movement wanted OT

[Bob Willman]

	A clock repair shop should be able to insert new bushings for the
worn bearings. I had a grandfather clock repaired that way.

Hi all
OT but I want to ask you Yanks a question.
I have a Sessions Clock that was my grand mothers and the escapement
movement bearings are badly worn, sufficiently enough that it will not keep
running as the gears jam.
Do any of you seriously collect clocks that you might have a spare movement.
The model is a Session "Ardmore", it dings on the half hour and soft deep
chime on the hour.
I guess I could silver solder up the old bearings and drill new holes :-((((
Any help would be appreciated.
