DeKalb High School Tower Clock Installation - 2

We staged all of the parts and materials in the future career center across the hall.  The school was very accommodating to the installation.  Without their assistance we wouldn't have been able to install the clock so quickly and efficiently.  We worked 12 to 14 hours a day for seven straight days.  It was great having all of the supplies so close.


 We created a small work area at the door into the tower.  This is where we did all of the custom fabrication required for a tower clock like this. 

Our drill press and other tools,  The door to the clock tower is at the left edge of this image.

Getting ready to reopen the create

A quick peek.
(07.30.11) We shipped it freight for insurance purposes so there was a bit of added anxiety to see how well the movement had traveled.  Of course it traveled just fine, the crate was built by an architect. :)


It was in good shape.

Boxing It Up for Shipment

We wanted to ensure the safest possible shipment back to DeKalb. After removing all of the fragile or vulnerable parts we bolted the clock to the pallet and built the crate around it.
The clock was shipped July 25th 2011.
