    Pendulum not moving
    I bought a Centurion 35 day chime clock at a yard sale. The papers that came with it say it was purchased in 1983. My problem is that the pendulum stops moving after a couple of minuets. Why does that happen?

    It Dances? Minuets? Does it Waltz? Not oiled properly, worn pendulum pivot or escapement is a possibility..
