Chauncey Jerome and the clockmaking revolution
The text recalls Chauncey Jerome born in Plymouth Connecticut 175 years ago who transformed clockmaking during a recession by cutting costs. He replaced wood with brass, cut production to under two dollars per clock, sold for six, and expanded from 200 to 600 brass clocks daily, creating a broad export market and forcing wooden clock makers to switch to metal. Jerome later retired rich and remained influential in the field.
