Repairing Erratic Beat on a Antique Cuckoo Clock

[@RexMcCleary]

Hey, I've really enjoyed this very informative video as it goes along way towards explaining why some of my clocks can't be put in beat by moving the case alone! Thanks for the time you've spent to post it. Rex

Thank you Jim!!! Your past tutorials have really been helpful in my repairs of cuckoo clocks. Thanks again!!!

Masterfully done Jim!!! From the movement, to the carvings, bellows and tops, and the handmade replacement cuckoo door!! Couldn’t have been done better!!! Top notch work as always Jim!!!

Big thank you to you Jim...The clock is working great here in Montana and made my milestone birthday one to remember. I appreciate all your hard work. This video is an inspiration for me to continue working on my other clock projects.

This is a fascinating peek into something that is visually daunting for the uninitiated. It makes wristwatches seem a little tame. I had no idea how the clocks made sounds like the cuckoo! Thanks so much for posting this and sharing the mysteries with us!

Excellent video, very informative. I really enjoyed the explanation on how to use the tooth straightener.

Interesting I've not seen the tooth straightener before. Thx

Yes it’s not used too often but a great tool when needed. I’ll have one for sale after I finish a wooden case for it but you can find them occasionally on eBay.

Really interesting and helpful

Loved this video. Is it possible that you could do a video of disassembling and re assembling this cuckoo/quail movement? I am working on one now and would love to see you do it. Thanks

Thanks for your comment, I was focused more on the two issues with this clock which needed to get shipped out ASAP. I do have a three train musical clock that works similarly but not sure about a video MAYBE?🤔but these aren't difficult to do, just look at it as a cuckoo clock movement with an added feature (the Quail side) which is triggering the cuckoo side with just a single lever. Mark those pins before dismantling to help with indexing while re-assembling it. Feel free to email me with questions if you get stuck. 😉

Tip: Collapse your audio down to mono before posting if you have that ability. Makes listening easier for a lot of people.

Thanks for this video - good information. Is there an accepted/safe way to straighten escape wheel teeth with hand tools if the Webster isn’t in the budget?
