You did a lot of very fine work on this clock - the way you restored the holes for the chains in the bottom of the case, the brass collars with set screws you made for both ends of the shaft that holds the water wheel. Well done.

I try

I am LITERALLY working on the SAME model as I watch & type 😊 I IDd it as an old Loetscher. This is my first Cuckoo clock & I'm doing it slowly & enjoying it. Mine is in slightly better original condition but was gunked terribly. Garaged, smelled, spider nests. My movement was was same model but not stamped made in Germany. I'm going to make a wooden waterwheel. Ty for ur video!!!

Best wishes for a successful restore. Whatever you do, don't drop it. That's what happened to this one.

@@dperry428I just purchased a 1929 Ingraham mantle clock for my wife that doesn’t run. The movement appears to be complete but in need of servicing. Do you allow people to send clocks to you/ pay you for your restoration services?

I do, but generally only during winter months when I can't be outside. This year I'm doing a number of repairs for someone who normally does his own work but had hand surgery. Contact me around November if you haven't found someone else. (If I'm still around. Each day is a blessing.)

Very nice vdo
