My girlfriend has developed some pretty good PC skills. She found all these dirty pics and stuff in the temporary Internet Explorer directories. So I started ...
I agree. Can the non clock postings be removed? It's bad enough that this forum is so inactive as far as clocks go, but we don't need the trash.<br><br>Does...
The postings can be removed by the owner of this group. The more active Yahoo clock site is Bill's Antique Clocks. (With lots of pictures) A little slow this...
I have just acquired a cuckoo clock and was wondering if someone can tell me ANYTHING about it. Unfortunately, I do not have the weights with it and will need...
Jason, Once I see some pictures I should be able to help. Straight on pictures of the back of the movement is what I need. Pictures of the clock itself are not...
Jason, It looks like a one-day Herbert Herr movement, but I'm double checking on it. I think the take 420 gram weights. Let me know if there are any markings...
Thanks! The only markings I see say, "Cuckoo Clock Mfg Co Germany" and "100/171". Also, it doesn't look very old, but can you give me a date range for the...
Jason, A new cuckoo clock like that would be over $200.00. I'll check with some of my sources to see if I can get a value on yours. I can see that it is a post...
Jon, Thanks so much. No I do not have the pendulum and top decoration. Are you sure there was a top decoration? Yes, I do have the back piece. What would be...
Jason, I was wrong on the type of movement. You have a Baduf movement. I've worked on a few of these, but they are rare.This doesn't necessarily increase the...
Jason, Check out the article I wrote on clocks as heirlooms. http://www.time-traveler.com/heirloom.html Jon www.time.traveler.com ... From: tsorf33 To:...
Jon, Again, thanks so much. Actually, I picked this clock up at an antique store for $15. I knew nothing about cuckoo clocks, but I liked the way it looked...
Jason, Definatly worth $15.00, even if it doesn't work. From what I could see in the pictures it looks pretty clean and the bellows look in good condition. I'm...
Great! Well, I just received the weights and it will still not run with the weights. If I pull down harder on the weight, I can get it to run, but otherwise,...
Jason, A heavier weight might do the trick. You definitely have a problem with the movement and a cleaning would help. Since this is expensive to have done,...
Hey there, Has anyone out there ordered from clockworks.com? If so how long does it take for ground delivery - I ordered from them on the 26th of april. ...
Just finished cleaning a cuckoo clock movement (1st time ever) everything is back together and ticking on beat - but the minute hand is almost impossible to...
hey perry! sounds like you put on one of the hand bushings either backwards (the one with the big hole that goes on first) or too tight (the one with the...
why is everyone so scared of trying? especially if you're working on an antique cuckoo, you want to keep everything original and it's sad when you see a 125...
It looks like it's been a while since this group was used. I hope this message gets read. My wife spent some time in Switzerland a couple years ago and has...
Bret, If you can fix it, that was a great price. You have a few problems that I can see and I'll try to work with you on them. I'm going to send this as is to...
Thank you for such a quick response. I just tried to send a reply that I don't think worked. Anyway, I can use any help anyone can offer. I don't know if...
Bret, Regular is a good movement, and you can still get them so you can easily replace the whole movement. I'll write more tomorrow to help with your clock....
I mentioned that the chain driven gear slips. Other than that the movement seems to work. Is there any way to maybe glue or reattatch that gear so it will...
Brent, I have a bit more time now, so let me see if I can answer your questions. First of all, a cuckoo clock is both a temperamental and forgiving movement....
