I repair a clock by completely disassembling and cleaning all of its components. I polish all the wear surfaces, and replace any material in the clock that may have worn down. When a part is missing or damaged beyond repair, I machine a replacement part from scratch. I have lathes, a milling machine, and other tools- I can make almost anything, including gears. After making a clock mechanically complete, I clean all of its parts one last time, and then perform a final assembly and lubrication. I test every clock for several weeks before releasing it from my shop.
