That's a far better clock kit than all those ones that just give you a cheap quartz block.

I tend to agree! it's built from about 97% wood, it's a Mechanical clock, and if you put your heart into the build, it will Run.
  The pendulum and turning gears are mesmerizing to watch, and a Mechanical clock is about the most relaxing background noise I can think of.
  If you can get the little balloon flight special "feature" on the RH side working, than that is frosting on the cake! I have seen cuckoo clocks with special features that the clock works power, but I do not recall ever seeing a model hot air balloon rise and descend on the hour.
  I did not keep track, but estimate I have close to 20 hours into the build.

Oil Derrick Update: I found a 20% off coupon code plus free shipping, so I have one of those the way. These kits can be quite addictive to build!
