Antique 1930s Fasco wall clock

Welcome back to the antique clock shop. Alright, I got the Bosco wall clock movement. I'm going to do a time-lapse video of taking this movement apart. That way we can look at that broken spring and see if I got one to replace it with or if I got to order one off of eBay. Alright, well, let's get to taking this thing apart. Okay, we got the movement all taken apart. And I can see the broken spring. I don't know if you can see it on camera, but it's broke. I need a new one. Okay, so the next step is to take this thing over and get it in a sonic cleaner and get everything cleaned up and then take these springs apart with my spring winder. And then see if I got another spring that will fit this one here. So, let's get working on that. Okay, got everything cleaned up with the sonic cleaner. This is the broken spring I pulled out of the barrel. I did order a new one. I got to get that put into the barrel. Then we can get the clock put back together. You can definitely tell this thing was made in the 30's because they were real light on putting the gold plating on there. There's not a lot of it on there. You can see it's all body. It's definitely from the 30's when they were running low on resources. Alright, the next step is to get this spring in the barrel and then I'll do a time lapse on reassembling this thing. Okay, got it all back together. Now we just got to oil it up and get it back in its case and start testing it out. Let's see. Got my little oiling pin here. Yeah, I usually go about three drops per pivot. Doesn't take much oil. A lot of problems is everybody over oils them. And it just attracts the dirt and dust and starts drying away at the plates over time. That's when you'll have to put bushings in it and fix it. This one didn't need bushed. It's in pretty good shape. Doesn't look the greatest, but got the new spring in on the time side. I ordered the spring. It came from Great Britain. So, we'll see here in a little bit. I'll get it oiled up here and then get it back in the case and start testing it out and see how that spring is going to do. Should be fine. You got to look for all the little spots these pivots are hiding to get the oil in them. Okay. I'll say it's got one jewel in it, let's see it right there. Almost there, a couple more to go. It's already ready to start running, this thing is starting to tick already. Alright, let's go put it in it's case and put the pendulum on it. Slide it on these little brackets here. Let me get the pendulum hooked up and I'll be right back. Okay, I got the bob hooked up on the pendulum and let's see how it sounds. There we go, that's better. Nice even tick. Okay, that's it for now, I'll get back when I got the rest of it back together. Thanks for watching. Okay, I got the face and hands back on the clock. And got it working pretty good, got it in beat. Let's see how the chime sounds. A little on top of the hour, a couple more times. It's a little soft but I couldn't get it to work any louder. Next step is to get the door back on it and I'll do another video of it when the door is on it. Okay, got the door back on it and everything is all finished up. That suspension spring seems to be a little weak in there. I may have to replace it. But other than that, it seems to be working fine. Now I just have to run it, test it out and go from there. Thanks for watching.
