Discover the art of timepiece maintenance in this hands-on course designed for the hobbyist. You will learn how to repair and restore older, mechanical clocks while gaining practical skills in identifying issues, disassembling components, and performing essential restorations.
You must provide your own clocks to work on throughout the course. The following tools are required for clock restoration and repair: slot, Phillips, and Robertson screwdrivers; needle-nose pliers; side and end cutters; measuring tape; a small toolbox; and a small camera (a cellphone camera is acceptable). NOTE: You will be required to bring an 8-day American key-wound clock on the first day of the course.
