If you want more information about the History of the Cuckoo Clock. See below two searches I did.
Search Reference: google®
It was believed that Ketterer created the cuckoo in the 1730s, inspired by the bellows of church organs to adapt the technology in lieu of the chimes then typically used in clocks. This oft-cited theory first emerged in a relatively popular 1979 self-published book The Black Forest Cuckoo Clock

Very. Interesting video, I learned a lot. Thank you for the information.
🙏🙏🙏
I love to watch allllll your cool vidos nice work cool
Hi! Tks for watching!!!!
Love the video keep them coming .where did you get coloured bellow paper from
Hi, thanks for message!!! I show you the secret! You need to get the texture in internet; Using photoshop, you can repeat te image and create a big image; print and enjoy. If you need more tips and tricks send a new message for me! See a next time, by by!
@@woodtransformerThat doesn’t make any sense.
Can you please name the cleaning solution that was used on the clock movement?
It looks like it is a very effective cleaner.
Hello! How are you? I used a chemical stripper for brass. You should be very careful because you can't keep the action for long time. All controlled use is beneficial. There are those who are against and others approve. We must apply the technique we have mastered the most. Test before applying any product, that's the secret! @johnbiteme9118
What did you use to clean the clock movement? I have a really tarnished movement that I'm restoring but I'm unsure on what to use on it.
Hi how are you? I use brass or bronze stripper. Hint: always in shorter time. Never leave long periods.
another way is to disassemble and use a 0 steel sponge and steel brushes. Never use force. Always with a light hand!
@@woodtransformer I'm doing well. Hope all is well on your end. Thank you for taking the time to respond to my comment and I appreciate you providing the suggestion. I picked up one at a garage sale for next to nothing because the case and carvings were in pieces. Luckily, it's complete with the exception of the rods that control the bellows. I believe its known as a quail/cuckoo clock due to having two birds. This is my first time working on anything like this so I'm trying to do all the research I can before I start on anything. Your video provided a heap of knowledge for me. Thank you.
Dear sir I like to watch alllllll your cool vidos ok very nice work sweet
🙏🙏🙏
Also the lever that comes out of the count wheel. If you adjust it to ride on the count wheel vs having a small gap that will keep the bird from bouncing in and out of the clock.
Where do you get bellow paper in more than just black/yellow? Thanks!
Hi how are you? I took a picture, send to photoshop, made a big picture and print. I found in internet but… don’t have that for sale. Have a nice day and thanks for message!
@@woodtransformer Thanks, thats exactly what I resorted to, but was hoping you knew someone that sold them!
Amazing, I am working on my first one somebody was selling it for parts. AZURA celestin Konrad C 50, the lady told me it was very old.
Hi, how are you? Thanks for message. I don't know the date was made. Its was a gift to me. Send one photo in my number for check about more informations. If you need help, send to me! See you anest time. @nonicknoname3138
I cannot begin to tell you how disappointed I was in watching this video! No audio explanation as to what was being done or why and running at high speed; I was not able learn anything. If you are worried about someone stealing your methods of repair why make the video at all. As for myself I only watch videos that teach something.
Hello! Are you doing?
About speed... it's common to have quick videos like this. The objective is to convey the idea of the steps and illustrate the moments. Clock is complex and each one can have a different defect. It's not about hiding knowledge.
About the audio... doing it in English or German does not guarantee everyone's understanding. You can send me a message about your questions and I will be happy to get back to you.
I'm sorry I didn't like it, I hope someday I can do something I like.
I am available!
big hug!!! @user-yd8ef1hm3w
@@woodtransformer WOW! I wasn’t expecting you to send me an answer. Thank you I appreciate that. I will tell you even though your video was very fast you did a better job of showing how and what might need to be repaired than some of the other videos I’ve watched. I have 2 clocks my wife brought back from Germany in the late 80’s that I believe just need to be cleaned. They both were working fine, however over a period of time they both began to run slower and slower until they stopped. Neither one has a music box, but both have coo-coo birds. One has never been cleaned and the other one I cleaned and oiled 20 years ago. So I might need to call upon you if I can’t figure it out. Thanks again!
@@DebbieRogers-j3tRun it at 1/4 speed.
Hi can anyone tell me what his brushing on the cucumber

I have a Cuckoo/Quail movement that is missing the short cuckoo lever. I would like to send it to you for rehab. I would love to see you do a video of your work on this.What do you think? Let me know where to send it and how can I pay you?😃 Ps love your videos!!
Hi, how are you? I live in Brazil... you can send to me... Where are you live? send a message in my cell phone... send pictures and questions. I will help you! Thanks for your message!!! @rehorneman
You dear sir are a awesome worker at what you do sweet nice work thanks for the vidos

Hello I have a cuckoo clock similliar to your's . I was hoping you know who made the case , the doors on the sides that style with the knob , same as mind and I have only seen them a couple times. Mine has a Regula movements I think # 20 movement I think, it is not stamped. The case does have 3 sch stamped inside between the bellows but I don't know what that means. Thanks for a great video and the clock looked amazing.

Hello, very helpful video, thank you for share your experience with us, would you like share the name or kind of paper did you use for repair the cuckoo sound?
Hi, how are you? Thanks for message!!! You can use “Cuckoo Clock Paper Bellow Recovery” for check the paper in internet. When you need help send another message! 🙏🙏🙏
The paper that McDonald's wraps around their McMuffin also works. Just make sure to use a clean section lol
Very nice clock wish i had one very cool to have one nice work
Perfetto! sei un vero professionista. Che liquido hai usato per pulire?
Hi! the secret is sanding with very fine sandpaper for finer finishes. After that, peroba oil or mineral oil. Tks!!!
Where 8s yr l9cation as I want to get my cuckoo clock repaired
master
Tks! 👊 @pepperdog3761
Would you mind sharing what dyes you're using? One is labeled Cedro.
Thanks!!
@waynenickel9070 Hi, how are you? Thanks for message. Yes, ink of "cedar". Sometimes, you need merge the color for create a new color like a original cuckoo clock.
Amost of the time it's a "law"! Long time ago, the industries of Cuckoo Clock used "ink" with anoter things and solvent base. If you need more information send a new message for me please. See you a next time!!!!
Wow Thanks Great Job I've got a couple running again myself, unfortunately can't get the music side going but happy I got them ticking and cuckooing.
Hi, thanks for message. Do you need help? Send a message with problem and I will help you. Have a nice day and waiting for you! @lewislaymons9450
@@woodtransformer I'm good, Thank you Got the clocks cleaned and working Disabled music I'm fine with that Thanks again will be watching your videos thou
Peace Brother
Thanks for your video. Can you tell me the clear liquid you used to clean the wood?
@hosocat1410 Hello, thank you for sending the question, which is extremely relevant.
Part by part...
1° - We must evaluate the uniformity of the dyeing. If it is uniform, we can start cleaning, if not, we have to evaluate whether we will do a partial or total restoration;
2° - In any of the above cases, we must identify the material that was used in the manufacture... you can do a test in a small area and with low interference in appearance; in this case it was dyed with solvent-based material, 98% of Cuckoo's of this style are like this.
Then I washed it with soap and water to remove the dust. Always in small areas, with as little material as possible.
Soon after, I moistened a cotton swab with solvent and started the process of diluting only the surface of the dye. You have to be very calm and do it in small areas... this is the secret.
I hope it helped you! Thank you for participating!!!
Thanks for sharing. 👍
Very nice clock cool
What is the clear liquid you are cleaning the case with, just plain water or some special concoction? Whatever it was, it worked very nicely. Really would be helpful if you paused every now and then and explained what you were doing. :)
Hi! First step: clear with brush, after: use a little bit water with cloth, after: you need discover what the ink used for paint, after: use the same base for mix the ink of surface. Ever in little spaces, step by step. 🙏🙏🙏👍
@@woodtransformer I wasn't sure if it was just plain water, mineral spirits or something else altogether, as I will be cleaning some clocks soon and it whatever you used seemed to work really well. Clock looked fantastic after you were done! Thanks!
@@bradb4075 still available. Always remember, to carry out cleaning you need to know what the dye base was. Have a good job!
very good video friend, what products do you use to clean the machinery?
@juanvega2788 Hi, how are you? You can use a brass and copper deoxidizer that is available in your country. Be very careful when using it. Before using any chemical product, read the recommendations and use personal protective equipment... test on damaged parts before applying to the main ones. Thank you for sending this message!
Very nice work I like it coool sweeeet
Tks! You are the best!!!!
Soo whats with the adds in your vidoss what going on with the adds dont like the adds on here ok
All good? Thank you for sending new messages. The adds are from you tube. you can subscribe and be free from them. It's a TH-cam rule... I have no control over it. I have clarified. Until later!!!
Muy bueno su video, en la forma que limpia la maquina sin ofender que huso para dejarla en forma brillante ,le escribo de Rosario St Fe Argentina desde ya muchas gracias y repito excelente video
@albertocomajuan3215 Muito obrigado, fico grato pela mensagem. Agradeço a visita no canal e fico a disposição para ajudar! Muitíssimo obrigado 🙏
Buenas noches Sr muy amable por responderme ,le comento ase poco comencé a querer reparar mis relojes qué son tres y me gustaría dejarlos en forma importante como lo hace hustede qué lo lava con ese líquido ya qué estoy le ago otra pregunta sin ofender ya qué hustede es el maestro tengo otro cucú qué andaba perfecto lo cambio de lugar y dejo de funcionar cuando le cuelgo el péndulo saco el péndulo y anda qué puede ser si hustede me lo podría esplicar desde ya muchas gracias y muy agradecido por contestarme
@@albertocomajuan3215 ¿todo bien? No entendí muy bien la pregunta. Por lo que tengo entendido, ¿quitaste el péndulo y luego no pudiste hacerlo funcionar nuevamente? ¡Puedes preguntar y estoy disponible para ayudarte!
@@woodtransformer si como no le comento nuevamente cambie de lugar el reloj le pongo las pesa y funciona al colgar el péndulo deja de funcionar lo muevo asia la izquierda o derecha y no funciona con el péndulo colgado saco el péndulo y comienza a funcionar disculpe si no me supe esplicar gracias nuevamente
@albertocomajuan3215 Los péndulos se componen de al menos dos partes: una varilla y un "peso". Este peso, cuando se "mueve" hacia arriba, acelera la cuenta... cuando se "mueve" hacia abajo, ralentiza el movimiento.
Otro punto es donde fijaste el péndulo. Debe pasar a través de la primera varilla y colgar allí mismo, en la parte superior del mecanismo. Si lo prefieres envíame una foto usando los datos de contacto y te puedo ayudar mejor.
are you using linseed oil to clean the wood case?
Hello! For everyday life I use a dry brush. For cases of restoration, I evaluate case by case. It all depends on the dye the manufacturer used. We should do a test in an isolated area. In this case I used the same solvent as the base for revitalization. The younger ones, you can use furniture polishes... without too much excess. Thank you for the message!!!
Very impressed. You are a mastercraftsman.
Hi, how are you? Thanks for message!!!! Thanks… Thanks… Thanks 🙏 🙏 🙏
mi scusi che tipo di impregnate ha usato e il il colore? e il prodotto per le catenelle. Grazie!
@fdp8785 Ciao come stai? Il materiale da colorare è a base di solvente, Walnut. Le catene dipendono dal materiale. È necessario utilizzare acidi specifici per ciascun materiale. Dopo l'uso utilizzare olio minerale per proteggere e lubrificare. Grazie per il messaggio!
Very nice work
🙏🙏🙏
I actually re-made the bellows in mine using the paper from an egg McMuffin. 😂 No regrets! They work fantastic!! And I got a McMuffin first!
🤣🤣🤣 I had a similar experience... I already used MC Donalds sandwich paper... it worked for a good period... then it tore... today I only use this specific material to repair follies. Thank you so much for sharing your story!!!! See you a next time!!! @ryansgirl2002
@@woodtransformer I bought this gem at a yard sale for 20 dollars and couldn't bear the time it would take to locate, order, and wait for impossibly slow shipping all the way to rural Kentucky so I improvised. Someday, when the old McMuffin paper fails, I'll fix it up the correct way. But in the meantime I'm rather enjoying my McCuckoo clock! 🤣 I have since gotten a second one that is much smaller and not as grand in any way, but everything is intact except for no pendulum. Any ideas on what to do? Im not sure how to even guess what size pendulum or if it matters or how to make a new one? Any advice would be appreciated. It's a very simple, seemingly cheap clock that I think cuckoos once every 15 minutes. I has one small weight and chain. No door for the bird, either, unfortunately. My favorite part is the bird busting thru the door lol this clock is very small, also, but I just love them all regardless of value or grandiosity. I was so excited I didn't even realize the pendulum part was missing.
Sweeeeeet
🙏🙏🙏
