Caption: Wes McEachron, an instrument maker in the UW-Madison machine shop, explains the functioning of the Music Hall clock pendulum. The clock was installed in the clocktower of what was then called Assembly Hall in 1879 , and remains gravity-run 125 years later. McEachron has helped maintain the Music Hall clock since 1988, and reports that knowledge of the complex working of the clock has been passed down orally from one generation to the next.
