If you like, skip to 21:02 to see just the adjustment of the position of the strike wheels necessary for the clock to properly stop striking.

Now that I've disassembled and cleaned the movement from an antique clock, in this video I reassemble it and adjust the position of the strike train wheels so that the clock strikes reliably.

It's a long video because you see me reassemble this clock movement in real time. I've seen only a few clock movement reassembly videos, likely because reassembly is more trialanderror and art than science. I apologize for the occasional offcamera messing with a given pivot, because I don't have magnifiers yet.

One other thing: for some reason, I consistently incorrectly refer to the verge as the "arbor" in this video. I've corrected this error in the captions.

The clock movement is an Ansonia Clock Company 8 day strike with alarm. It gongs once per hour on the hour, and gongs once on the half hour. The movement is stamped "9 1/4". The clock case's label dimly reads "Derby"; the Ansonia Derby model of kitchen clock was first manufactured in 1894.

The Pivot Locator tool I use through most of this video is available from clock parts suppliers, such as Timesavers: https://timesavers.com/i89488948pi...
