- Do you own a clock that is special to you that has stopped working, perhaps a gift or a family heirloom? This book is for you.
- Do you like to tinker with mechanical things? This book is for you.
- Have you taken a clock apart but can't get it back together? This book is for you.
- Are you fascinated with clocks, have several you have bought but don't work? This book is for you.
Be bold. Take on your project. This book will hold your hand every step of the way and guide you to success. YOU CAN DO IT.
Mechanical clocks are now considered works of art, a part of history, a part of the family, and they also need love.
Sooner or later, your treasured timepiece will stop. Your choice is to either live with it in silence or go to a hard to find a clock repair shop, leave it for weeks and pay perhaps hundreds of dollars to get it back, hopefully working.
The fact is, you can more than likely do the same thing they do, by yourself. There are little-known items that stop a clock that you can easily do yourself for little or no money.
You can service any mechanical pendulum clock: Grandfather Clocks, Mantel Clocks, Wall Clocks, Kitchen Clocks, French Clocks, Cuckoo Clocks, 400-day etc. No special tools needed besides oil which I will tell you where to buy very inexpensively.
I will teach you how to service your own clock.
