  @Obsidian369 0 seconds ago You would like to tell yourself that about the main spring. It probably was a demon Spirit messing with you to make you jump! It sounds awful. Strange that Grease would be sticky to cause it to jump like that. No way... it would have done it by then!

  Haha. Well, it's not just grease. It's a combination of grease and dirt, which turns into a very sticky substance. It feels sticky like glue and is very hard to clean off. Thanks for watching!

  Before your Next clock repair learn how to do bushings and Polish pivots to ensure your repair lasts long there’s plenty of KZread videos showing how to do it by hand anyways great videos and I hope to see your next repair one of these days 👍

  I always polish the plates, Clean the inside of the case, Polish the pinions, check and rebush, (I know you mentioned that) I never use water, unless there is an important reason. Your fold on the bellow does not allow it to compress, you may need to Skive it. So its weak on the Co. Ok on the Koo, it takes a long time to learn skills and almost always it's the hard way, but very good effort , for a newbie it's a fun Profession, and always in demand

  Hey man, I just found your channel and this video has been a real blast. I wanted to ask if you have any insight because I'm sure American clocks have roughly the same mechanisms, such as the striking hammer having three levers on its arbor. ive eug around and I cant find very much about this part specifically. So I found a Sessions movement in pieces and it came with the striking hammer outside the movement. When I put everything back together and allow it to strike, the hammer bounces a lot each time it strikes. In this Seth Thomas, the hammer has no recoil. Is one of the three levers on the hammer meant to counter this recoil or is that the job of the spring wire? If you can respond, I'd be very happy.

  This is why if a supposed "clock maker" gives too low of a price to do a thorough svc. They're only gonna over oil pivots, not disassemble and potentially damage your clock. This profession takes expertise, tools and time to complete. First to diagnose,disassemble/ clean /rebush, if necessary. Then after assembly they have to let your clock run and make needed adjustments. A watchmaker clockmaker has to charge for all of this, unless they owe you a favor or something.

• 
  @WatchOverhaulАй бұрын

  It takes a long time to do it right, and I'm just an amateur. A professional clock maker might be a little quicker, but you're also paying for the skills and expertise they have. Depending on the clock, the cost of service might be more than what the clock is worth in terms of monetary value, but sentimental value might matter more. Thanks for watching and commenting!

  I have inherited a clock from my dad. He got it from his parents who got it from my great-grandparents. It’s a clock manufactured by Wm. L. Gilbert clock company. As far as I can tell in the research I’ve done, it was made around 1905. My dad talks about it and how he remembers how it chimed. He unfortunately has severe COPD. I wish I could have it repaired before he passes but it’s impossible to find any clock restoration business where I live. 😟

  I am interested in the details of how you put the clock in beat and adjusted the beat rate. I have an old Sessions wall clock that is my first find that I am working through. First working through the mechanicals to get it running long enough to uncover and understand its issues. I am unsure if the pendulum is original, which may be part of my problem. I have been unable to locate enough information to identify the clock. If you provide pointers in that area too, that would help. Great video! I learn as I do, similar to the spirit of this video.

  Terrific video, thanks for sharing. I use naphtha to clean (camping gas), it evaporates completely clean unlike mineral spirits, etc. Someone else suggested using "Goop" with lanolin to clean the case and it does an amazing job removing all the old grime (following up with a damp towel.) Never be afraid to apply a coat or two of shellack, it's so easy to use and the shine is like showroom. I have never figured out how to restore the old looking dials but maybe that is fine to retain the antique look. You have inspired me to build an unwinder. Thanks you so much!
