That's what I thought, too. It looks like it has been tick-tocking for a century :) The tick and tock would probably drive me crazy, though.
Glad to see that you finally started photographing your collection @countrygirl! I am sure you are very proud of your son and grandson for building this clock. Beautiful.
I bet you could stand Lego people on that bottom ledge, too... :-)
I think the Lego guys would like to hang from the pendulum???
I am sure they had nice bonding time. They did a very nice job of things hence they get the first post of the "series". I'm setting the next one up for next week. It will be a bunch of smaller clocks.
