A cold rainy southern Ohio day so I spent time applying a number of very light coats of lacquer to the clock hands until I was happy with the finish – They look good – and sanded and re-lacquered a few other parts that I was not totally happy with. Enough lacquering, the clock is ready to re-assemble.
Started by assembling the remontoire winding arm that includes the winding motor, electric circuit board and the battery. See earlier post for details.
Also attached the arbors (shafts) and mounting hardware to the clock frame so I am ready to assemble the wheel trains. However, I need to purchase some brass tube as one of the bearing tubes is about 1/8” too short. This was not an issue while I was testing the clock but not for the final product. I will have to visit the hardware store tomorrow.
