Question
QUESTION: Hi, my original question was on 08/26/09.  I stated that my dads clock was running but the hands didn't move.  The last correspondence said to remove the movement and give the number to you.  It is 1032.  Takane.  It has a pendulum and chimes.  Is that enough information

Thanks again

ANSWER: Is the speaker inside a tube mounted to the top of the movement?

---------- FOLLOW-UP ----------

QUESTION: Yes it is.

Answer
Great, there are three different hand shaft lengths available. The short one will go through material up to 3/8" thick, the next one goes through 5/8" thick and the long one goes through 3/4" thick material.
You can see them and order them from the following webpage:

It is the second photo down from the top.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
