a kwikstart holds your thimbles and it site on top of the clock, I sold a couple not that long ago but they can be bought from Linell Instruements

yes it saves time but you can now buy inserts for the clock so you do not have to use thimbles at all

Most people only buy half a dozen or if you know someone who wants some buy a set between you.There is a advert for them in the BHW dated 15th Jan.page 114.

also wise to check with the club youre going to fly in as to wether they are accepted or not. my club has only recently accepted their use , i bought the inserts at Blackpool (off Oldpigeonclocks) who is a member of this site.   andy.

I dont think a club can refuse them if they are passed by your Union.

i think otherwise Tony , i know if passed by a union the rule should then apply to the club , but if objected to by the club or a change to that rule by the club then that will be the over-riding factor . (in all honesty it doesnt make a lot of sense working that way , but its deep rooted in the history of many clubs) as i am sure youll know , many do not like change.    andy.

they are good the thimbles insurts heres one in the clock im useing rubber of bird leg straight in clock stamp no problmes with rubber off on to thimble then into clock every seconds count

would i be correct in saying you dont have to use the inserts just the rubber but if it gets stuck it your own fault .

 

 

with the t3 clock you have to use a thimble if you dont have the inserts fitted mate

the nehu allows rubbers to be dropped straight into cell without this conversion,but at own risk if clock jams
