Clock Inserts

[kmmcrafts]

Well, about that time to order some more inserts.. I contact my supplier this morning and was discussing a deal and options etc.. I'm kind of hyped because they brought back the Metal case in the 50mm ( 2" ) size..  I ordered a few of them in Gold with Arabic and Roman numbers.. They are also going to send me several samples.. looks like maybe several sizes from the 2" - 3-1/2 inch maybe... Anyway for the longest time you couldn't get 2" inserts in a metal case.. they only had plastic case ones.. 

The 2" that I ordered was also with the good PC21 movement ( motor ) which is what I use in all the other clocks.. so they should be good quality.. The samples they are sending I'm pretty sure are plastic clocks with China movements.. 

Anyway.. I ordered several plastic case clocks as I do use those in certain situations as the metal ones with the compression fit.. they can be a bear to get inserted into the hole.. especially on delicate pieces.. so I'll sometimes use the plastic insert for those.. I ordered enough of the plastic and metal on the 37mm ( 1-7/16 ) that I'll probably offer both on my website.. as well as the 50mm if anyone takes up clock making.. and has a interest in some quality clocks.. LOL To my knowledge nobody is selling the 50mm metal case clocks in the USA.. If I'm wrong on that correct me.. I haven't researched that to be 100% correct.. I know they aren't on any of the main suppliers sites that I've used in the past..

Thank you Dave, I'm surprised they made it that fast as the mail has been on the slow side much of this year..
