Support -  weight,  music,  general info, warnings,  repairs,  maintenance....................

Bell chart - figure out the tone and weight of a bell by knowing the diameter

Music by name or by number of bells and name - Music for chimes not always found in Hymnals  - Tune, minimum # of bells, categories, where found.   (takes 5-60 secs. to load)

There are music writing and transposition programs for computer.  In the beginning, they will all drive you crazy.  Symphony, Finale, Noteworthy, Muzsic and others.

I have worked with Finale, and find it impossible for ME to acceptably enter the tunes.
If you have knowlege of any of the music writing and transposition programs,
please, let AllChimes know.
Then we might figure out a way to make these tunes available in the correct key.
If successful, then we might be brash enough to try numbers and letters.

General chime info - what to expect, what you can do, tips and tricks

Repairs for any instrument - submit problem, we suggest solutions and one or more contractors to do the work.

Tower Maintenance - a must read and plea for action

Climbing a Tower? - don't. They are dangerous.  Read why.

Talks, presentations and local bell historical projects - An outline for getting students, historians or others to do them.
