Finally, a man named Tom Seaman has written a no nonsense book about
the repair and maintenance of today’s cuckoo clock. This book does not
talk about the history of the Black Forest region or the history of the
Black Forest cuckoo with hand drawn, hard to understand pictures and
language. It concentrates on what is most important, repair, simple
adjustments and maintenance of these great clocks.
From
his simple straight forward approach Tom uses in all of his photo
details and explanations in this manual, it is evident of the many, many
years he has been repairing and servicing cuckoo’s.
It has beautifully detailed photographs of a cuckoo movement during the
actual dismantle and assembly of a very common and time tested cuckoo
movement.
Tom has also included many common problems that occur with a cuckoo
movement, as well as adjustments and procedures to repair it and guess
what?, he also details typical problems that occur in a musical clock
along with photos and adjustments to correct them.
If you are interested in cuckoo clock repair and service, or a clock
owner who wants to repair a keepsake, this is a “MUST HAVE” book for
your workshop. It has 136 pages of instructions, crystal clear
photographs, and tools you will need to basically make any sick cuckoo,
well again.
Also included are web addresses and phone numbers of suppliers you will
need for replacement parts, accessories and tools. It is a “shop
friendly” book that easily lies open on your work bench to follow each
and every step you are interested in.

book.
