    Watching you put the gears back in the clock, took away my fear of never seeing the clock run again. Some one like me would just heat a pan of water with dawn and dunk it in full. OH that's right, I know someone that works on clocks. lol

      I am sure you would learn quick if I were your teacher and did a one on one with your cuckoo clock. But I know you are a very busy person and don't want to take the time to learn a new project like the other 102 projects you do. Thanks for watching Bob Anderson and you have a great week.

    Fantastic shipping! I love that pendulum. You got a nice bunch of parts. I'm glad someone saved them instead of throwing them away. I think the worm holes add a nice character to the wood, as long as they didn't destroy the integrity of the wood. Nice hands and dial. A very beautiful piece. I started singing when you spelled out G-L-O-R-I-A! Have you ever heard that song?
    Nice heavy movement. What were you thinking about using on the face? No scratches on it. Very nice. Very old suspension spring. That cool pendulum design kept it from torquing and breaking.
    Can't wait to see the woodwork. Great video. That movement is gorgeous. What were the two different pins for on the top two wheels? Thanks for sharing and the end promo!

      I was thinking of using the Dawn Dish soap, but then did nothing to the dial because of the Value of the clock. If I had of known how you cleaned your gilt brass color, I would have done the same here. Just the same, I am happy with this clock and looks way better than it did when I first saw the clock. (Besides the worm damage, after refinishing the case, the dust Still comes out of the holes if you tap it, lol.

    What do you use to clean the movement parts? Not the cleaner but what process? Ultrasonic soak? Great video thanks

    • @justmike57

      I take the movement apart, decide if I should do a quick clean on the parts first or put the in my Ultrasonic Cleaning Machine with the temp set at 35c. The machine is something that just makes my job faster, but not needed. Make sure to take pictures of the movement and where all the gears are and any springs or spring wires to help you get the movement back together. The movement plates shouldn't be in the cleaner for more that 5 minutes at a time because of the Lacquer finish on the newer ones. The gears don't really matter how long they are in the cleaner. Take the gears out of the cleaner and wash them with Dawn Dish Soap and a toothbrush as needed then rinse well with hot water from the tap. I use a hair drier to blow them dry. Use a toothpick in the pivot holes, (in the plates where the gears would go). Then you can put the gears all back in and put the second plate back on. Now you can oil the pivots with a small drop of oil. Now that the movement is clean and together you can look and see better if you need new bushings.
      This was short but sweet and if you watch most of my videos, I tell you how I do it all.

      I’ll be attempting to take apart this movement and clean in ultrasonic. My first movement attempt…Is there a way to lay pieces out to help remember order / what goes where? Great description above from you. Thanks

    Merhaba. Bu tahta kurdunun istilası için gaz yağı kullanıldığını duydum ne kadar soğru acaba? Hiç tecrübeniz oldu mu daha önce kullandınız mı? Tahta kurdu bir defa dadanmış tahtayı yiyor... En etkili çözüm nedir acaba? Bir saatimde aynı sorun var malesef... Teşekkürler

      This damage was done a long time ago and the worms are all gone now. I am amazed how strong the wood still is on the rest of the clock. Thanks so much for watching and you have a wonderful week burak dağ

    Another great job Mike. I was watching a video that Mark made. One of his ads was crawling up the screen. It was very distracting. he said I was the only who said anything. Have you watched his current video? Did you see the ad?

    • @justmike57
      @justmike57  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You have to remember that his channel is his channel and style. He does have small print so you can still see what he is talking about and learn from what he is talking about. Also, if you didn't like his style of videos, there are others that have clock channels that you might learn from as well, but many be not as detailed. I still watch his channel because there might be something new I didn't thing of or because I just need a break from my channel. You have a wonderful week and keep a smile on your face.

      And wrapping it good is all I ask, well, besides sending the clock to the right address. Thanks for watching Bat. Have a Great Week.

      Just type in Goodwill Action, and on their site type in clocks and you will see all the clocks they have to bid on. Special note. For a better price, Snipper Bid at the last 10 seconds of the end of that action. This was you don't get caught up in a bidding war and pay way to much for the clock.
