Grandfather Clock Finial
#1

I'm the proud owner of a Philco 570 grandfather clock/radio combo, and my set suffers from the ubiquitous missing finial. I see there was a gentleman making repros some time back, but apparently no longer does so.

Anybody have a source for such an item? If not, does anybody know of a good high-resolution picture of one that I could bring to a wood worker to have them try to turn one for me?

Thanks!

I'd drop Steve Davis a note maybe he can help you out.

figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!

I took pictures of the one I have.  Sorry about the plastic.  It's a pain to mount and take off.  If this doesn't do it for you, let me know... I'll do one better.
