| Description: |
Clock lovers will find everything they
need to know in this book to diagnose and correct faults in
any kind of clock, both antique and modern, and carry out
their own expert repairs without any confusing jargon. Illustrated
with 300 line drawings, the first chapter in this detailed
book provides an overall coverage of clock repairs. The author
continues with the basics of locating clock faults, taking
the reader step-by-step through the cleaning of clock movements,
disassembly and dissection of each clock part, to chimes,
re-assembly and even clock lubrication and friction.
Penman reserves a chapter for tools and equipment particular
to clock repair, and emphasises that it is not necessary to
invest in a workshop laden with expensive tools. According
to the author, effective clock repair can be undertaken at
the kitchen table with simple household tools. A must read
for anyone-from beginner to advanced-with an interest in what
is probably the oldest and most loved household machine.
