Building and renovation

Restoring a town clock tower and its bell

A tower restoration sends the clock, the bell and the dial glass to different workshops, and grants and donors pay for the work. This project holds tower and clock shop photos, each part on a board while it is away, the change orders and the crane date.

The Town Hall Clock Tower project in Thicket over a photograph of a town green with old maples and a brick town hall: the health flag reading At risk, the restoration's dates and six people, then eight cards: the Message Board with the rotten corner posts on top, To-dos with four lists, three of them on the progress chart, In the tower as nine photographs of the tower under repair, the Parts in the shop board with cards in Out of the tower, In the shop and Back on site, the Tower schedule with the council vote next, Clock shop as nine photographs of the 1890 clock movement, Paperwork with change order 3, the letters and the answers for minute sponsors, and Chat about the shoring and the clock's rate, with three external links below.

The Town of Wyckham posts each find and decision about its clock tower on the Message Board and splits the work into four lists in To-dos, three of them on the progress chart. Photos from the tower and from the clock restorer's shop sit in two Docs & Files grids, every part that leaves the tower is a card on Boards until it is back in place, and the Calendar holds the council vote, the sponsors' tour and the crane lift. Change orders and letters are in a third Docs & Files, and the crew talks through each morning in Chat.
