Thanks for the video, this really helped me get a similar one together. I would have been able to do it myself but your method of placing the wheels was much quicker and less difficult.

So-called "full size" home use guns take a 7/16 inch stick, which turns out to be 11.1125mm. The other common home use size is 5/16 inch which is 7.95mm. The small commercial guns seem to take a 1/2 inch stick or what they call 12mm (reality is 1/2 inch is 12.7mm however.) This makes for lots of confusion. Anytime I see an odd metric size I know it's been converted.

Thank you for this video! My sander was working but was not taking in the sawdust. It was badly clogged inside!

It's a great sander other than these little issues. Hopefully you can keep it working. Cheers

Was the problem with the catch on the clock spring simply that it was dirty? I'm about to start on the same exact clock. My chime spring is doing the same thing your clock did. So I'm curious. Thanks

@mjlrestorationshop.2405 2 ай бұрын

Well, this was a while ago.. but I remember the catch being super disgusting and not moving like it should. At times, it would catch, and other times, it would allow the spring to unwind uncontrollably. Cheers and good luck. If you haven't taken many apart remember to take lots of pictures. It helps 👍👍

Please do not announce what you are going to do. Nothing is more boring than explanations while nothing is going on. Just do what you have to do and explain as you go along. Also avoid describing what is clearly visible. It serves no purpose and it sounds silly.

For the wood case, I lightly sanded the wood case (320 Grit) and wiped it with mineral spirits. For the finish, Tung Oil (Minwax). Works very well........

What were the brown and white polishes you used on the brass?

@mjlrestorationshop.2405 8 ай бұрын

The white is for softer metals and the brown is a little more aggressive for deeper scratches. If memory serves me correctly . If you buy a kit it gives you a break down of what each one is geared toward. Cheers 🍻

@bradb4075 8 ай бұрын

@@mjlrestorationshop.2405 Thanks. I found some at Harbor Freight today, seem to use a little different coloring scheme, brown was for brass/softer metals, etc, and green was for mirror polish on brass/softer metals. White at HF stated "to prevent scratches on aluminum or plastics" or something. Not sure if thats the same as what you had. I got the brown and green. Hopefully those work for me.

Hi I’ve just come across your well put together video of your restoration. I am currently trying to get hold of a new pendulum spring or full mechanism as the one I’m working on is broken. I am in Australia and since it’s an American clock am having difficulty getting one in Australia. Can you help please!

@hellonwheelz3317 9 ай бұрын

I just picked up the same clock at Goodwill for $7.50. The only thing is, there is no winding key with it. Do you know where I can pick up a key, or is there something else I can use to wind it? There was also no booklet or whatever that was that was attached to the back door. Do you know where I can find one of those?

@stillretired 9 ай бұрын

You'll need a size 6 key that can be found online for about $10.00. The label on the inside of the door has directions and I'll see if I can read the label on the Sessions "Berkeley" model I'm working on. Lots of info to be found online. Don't mess with the springs till you research how to "let down" the pressure and use mainspring clamps to secure the springs. I'm at the beginning of the process but I do know the springs have power that needs control.

@hellonwheelz3317 9 ай бұрын

@stillretired ok, thanks very much.... not sure if I'm brave enough to take it apart. I'll just see if I can get it wound up for now.

Hello.. I don't check my messages every day so sorry for the late response. I can confirm that it is a size 6 key. I have four clocks from the same era, and they are all keyed alike. Best of luck with it😁 these are a well-built clock. Cheers

How about the center piece is also 1/2" thick but you just sand the adjustment bar a bit?

You can certainly sand it if it doesn't work perfectly, but the piece that I laminated on the top of the clamp that slides up and down is definitely a hair thicker then the bar. If you're in the process of making them let me know how they turn out.👍 Cheers
