Some amazing feedback on a recently completed kit for the 12 second gold plated Rolling Ball clock.
Purchased as a birthday present I had messages, this week, from both the birthday present purchaser and the receiver along with some photos and a video of their clock running within 24 hours of it being delivered.

Unfortunately the Kits4Clocks page won’t let me post both photos and videos at the same time so here’s a photo and a screen shot of the comments I received.

With so many other clock kit ideas that I’d like to release, why not get the ball rolling and help a small business facilitate the bringing out of new designs and ideas, by ordering your Rolling Ball clock kit on our website today. www.kits4clocks.co.uk 😀 🕰️

Great memories from the company i started, along with Steve, in 2008 Steam Traction World. Just like my clocks, all our products were designed to be assembled without the need for machine tools or any specialist equipment. The full size replica ‘Lykamobile’ steam car (called that because it was Lyka Locomobile) was the first of its type to do John O Groats to Lands End in 100 years. Some achievement and all for charity!!

What a week….picked up 4 new orders including 1 in Essex, 1 in Dundee (fully built clock as we supply them too!) and 2 in the U.S.A. Delivered clocks this week to Preston, Huddersfield, 2 in Northampton, and 1 in Kenilworth. Delivering another to the Isle of Wight next weekend (as going to the festival so will deliver on way!).

Only 2 plain brass kits now left from this batch and half the 18k gold plated one’s have now sold!

You still have ‘time’ to order yours but don’t wait too long to get the ‘ball rolling’ as the way it’s going this batch of 30 are getting snapped up.

Any advice on the best way to send a fragile glass case to America would be appreciated as feeling the stress!! 🤣

A company I started with Steve, my business partner and best friend…..a genius of an engineer!! Everything learnt over 28 years (half my life) in the fully machined kit business has been put into kits4clocks. Purchase one of our clocks knowing I’ve put half my life experiences into ensuring what you are buying is exactly what it says on the tin!

Another busy morning selling and packing our very own ‘gifts of time!’ On days like this I do think a ‘Time Machine’ would make it easier!

Preparing number 008, a 12 second 18k gold plated kit for delivery to Kenilworth, Warwickshire tonight! Those eagle eyed followers will see the 30 second Rolling Ball prototype in the background of one of the photos……along with Deadpool, Terminator & a miniature Megatron!! (these aren’t yet available in kit form!! 🤣)

As well as tomorrow’s delivery to Preston, in Lancashire, we also now have ready, plain brass kit number 005, which is will be working its way to Calderdale, West Yorkshire.

Next weeks shipments will be travelling even further afield with despatches to Dundee and Milwaukee USA.

There are some gold plated clocks still available but we are down to only 2 plain brass kits now left from this batch. Order now to avoid disappointment. ❤️

Gold plated kit number 014 delivered to Northampton this morning to a brilliant customer who has supported me for over 20 years. He’s going through a tough time currently so hopefully building his clock gives him some respite! ❤️

Start spreading the news……..after a pretty full on 13 days visiting Toronto, Niagara Falls & New York it’ll be back to work as normal once I return on Thursday. Thanks to Mr W in Lancashire for your order while I’ve been away. All being well we should start shipping all orders placed so far in the next week to ten days. To everyone following in the UK, enjoy the sun and bank holiday while I wander the streets of the Big Apple 🍎 in the rain!

Very sad to hear that the company I started 18 years ago, sold my majority stake in 28 months ago, and left totally 16 months ago, went into liquidation at the end of last week. Over the years myself and Steve Baldock owned Steam Traction World we manufactured in kit form and sold over 1500 traction engines/steam lorry’s/steam cars (the equivalent to almost producing 2 engines per week) which had such a positive impact on so many peoples lives and totally changed the outlook on the rally fields for miniature steam.
