Working on my Claude Reeve Gravity Regulator, originally published in ME in 1960. As I make progress I often refer to the original article and I keep thinking about the author.
 
I know he designed quite a number of clocks over many years but does anyone know of a complete list of what he made and has any inormation been published about C B Reeve himself, perhaps in the ME magazine? Tried Googling without much success, just curious.

Hello,

Thanks for the information. I have looked through the BHI lists a few times just in case I missed it without success. Not sure of the date I am looking for which does not help.

I have a feeling that I read a letter from him in Clocks magazine when I used to subscribe to it in the late 70's early 80's, but dont have the magazines any more to check. John Wilding in his introduction to the Gravity Regulator gives some information on him and quotes that CB Reeve made at least 3 of the gravity regulators, no mean task along with his musical clock and others.

I have heard that he was very helpful and quite a prolific letter writer, sure someone will have more information.

Peter
