Restoring a Forgotten Wooden Mechanical Clock

For more than 200 years, this wooden mechanical clock remained silent.

In this restoration project, I carefully disassemble, repair, and rebuild an antique wooden clock using traditional woodworking techniques. Every damaged gear, worn axle, and delicate escapement is restored by hand to bring this forgotten masterpiece back to life.

This film is part of the Wooden Motor Works restoration series, celebrating the engineering and craftsmanship of the 18th century.
