Question
I have a Hentschel grandfather kit clock that may be 30 yearss old.  Recently the suspension spring broke.  Do you know of a source for such a part?  I reside in Houston. Texas.

Thanks in advance for your assistancee.

Answer
You might give timesavers.com and they have a complete catalog on line but have a 25.00 min order. You can email me a picture of your old one along with dimensions and I might have one in stock and will mail it to you no charge.  Include the numbers from the back plate of the movement.Its worth a try.
Let me know if I can be of further help.
