Thank you very much for your video. Happy you showed the sewer pipe to hold the works. I use to uses a desert dish, but I broke down and bought the movement legs for a much higher price then the pipe.

Great video Derek. Thanks for posting this.

[@robertkemp9685]

The light circular scratches, are they the same diameter as your piece of sewer pipe? Could some sharp / abrasive particals have become embedded in the smoothed end of the pipe?

[@torsiondell]

They were on there already but thank for the observation

Thanks Derek what oil do you use for the mainspring or do you use grease, look forward to the next video.

[@torsiondell]

I never use grease in a torsion clock mainspring, I use fully synthetic Mobil 1, grease seems to be to sticky ok for normal clocks but not torsion clocks.

Why does the barrel top cover cut out need to align with the spring hook pin?

[@torsiondell]

It doesn’t always but it needs to go back on in the same place as when removed

[@genedoerr9519]

Hello... I have a similar clock by the same maker... I am unable to remove the hour hand and was wondering if it was fixed on to the shaft or just stuck?

[@torsiondell]

It was/is probably just stuck just gently move it from side to side that should free it .
