Hello from the east bay of SF,
I just purchased a clock at a gargae sale, and during my research I found your forum. I had no idea there was such an interests in flip clocks. I will clean it up, and if it works, and is a desirable model, I will sell it on ebay and look for another. I am looking forward to learning about these clocks!

Welcome to this forum filled with flip clock enthusiasts! What clock (make/model) did you buy?

[KmackM]

Hello, and thank you.

I bought a Panasonic RC-6015 for a dollar at a garage sale on Saturday. Everything works, but it makes a tapping noise, continuously. Other than that, it looks great, and seems to all work fine. That tapping may be a big deal, I don't know.

Congrats on the Find. And welcome to Flip Clock fans !

[KmackM]

Thank you River!

Should I start a new thread and ask about the issue with the clock?

[flipoclock]

The tapping noise is likely to be the motor which is off balance..... Not necessarily a big issue, but it can (usually) be fixed.

It might be something else entirely though :-) Difficult to say without any actual sound.

Awesome find! I like the look of this clock. There seems to be a lot of them still around. $1 is a great price.

Hi flipclock_nl and robbyrobot,

I am sorry, I am new to forums and didn't see this until now, I thought it would email me.

I will start another thread for the repiar I am going to attempt.

Thanks to all.

Thanks KmackM. Starting a new thread would be good. Even if that 6015 was hollow inside you made an incredible find. Look forward to how it goes for you.

Thank you,
I hope to get to that soon, I want to put up a video with the noise that it is making.
