This barometer was presented to the owners grandfather on his retirement back in the 1960’s. Unfortunately it had suffered an accident and was looking a little worse for wear.

Fortunately the mechanism was intact even though a fall had broken the glass and distorted the frame.

Materials:

New brass frame for the glass – bought from Timesavers, Scottsdale, AZ 85260 USA
New glass custom made with a hole for the reference pointer – Commercial Mirror & Glass, Christchurch
Some brass fittings for securing the reference pointer.
