The second bell has been hung on its wheel for some time but the clapper never properly made to work as there seemed little point with no proper treble. Yet another look through the numerous bells one collects for these projects has now found a small bell which is just about suitable for the treble even if it might be a semi tone too high. It sort of sounds right so progress is being made to hang and fit a clapper. At 8 ½ oz the bell is so small I have to rethink how the clapper might actually work and fit inside such a small bell and if it needs to be hung out on a stem much nearer the outer edge like the others? However for now it does finally make the ring a set of eight. 

With the quarter booked for next week have also been all over the bells and the frame to make sure nothing is loose. Tightened up a few wheels to the headstocks and made sure the clappers function and are oiled. Also modified the flight on the tenor very slightly increasing it weight to make the clapper hit the bell to make a little more noise as the backstroke particularly was almost inaudible.

Finally got around to gluing properly the damaged rim to the tenor wheel which was dropped a while ago when the move happened and needed proper repair. Clamped up and then adjusted all the tail ends of the new ropes so that they were correct and ready for the planned quarter peal.
