Hi Robert, I hope your pivot tool turned out ok. I have just noticed that you are a wood turner, I'll be watching some of your videos soon. My lathe arrives from Machinery House later on this week.
@@ScottiesClockWorld G'Day Scottie. I.m guessing you may be getting a metal lathe. My wife upgraded and bought me the wood lathe in late 2014, also from Machinery House. I'm now also experimenting with a mini bench-top metal lathe to make some clock parts. Hopefully with some encouragement from the family. I will get back to woodturning and my clock repairs. 🙂 Rob
@@robertcloosterman9336, Hi Rob, I am getting a wood turning lathe, I already have a metal lathe that I use for clock repairs. I have talked about getting a wood turning lathe for 5 or 6 years now but my recent trigger-finger surgery has made the decision for me as I can't axe/knife wooden spoons for quite a few months into the future. Your metal lathe will greatly expand your horizons when servicing/repairing clock movement parts. I look forward to seeing some metal lathe videos on your channel. Cheers Scottie
Hello Scottie and thanks for these lessons. At around 19:20 your checking all the wheels in place again but I don't see what we've got from that. What is the diagnosis from that, since we already learned 4 bushings are bad? I'm following you so I can fix my clock and you are a really good teacher.
Thank you Scottie, great idea on the pivot tool. If you would, PLEASE show us how you bush the Escape Wheel bridge side. I need some help and support ideas with those bushings. I'm really learning and building confidence in myself with your videos.
It will have to be manually bushed, a machine won't handle it. Here are a couple of videos to help you out.

Hi Scottie, I’m enjoying your videos. My fixer upper clock is now in pieces and in the cleaning process. I notice you sometimes mention 5 degrees and sometimes 5%. 5 degrees is easy to estimate but 5% is a little ambiguous. Are these roughly the same as 90 degrees would be flat on the plate as in 100% leaned over? David
Scottie, I really enjoy your hands-on demonstrations. They are very educational.
Glad i am able to help you with my videos. Thanks for your comment.
G'Day Scottie. Love the tool. I have thought about making a specific pivot align tool but did not know where to start. Once again, love it. 👍👍👍 🙂 Rob

Checking to make sure I haven't missed any bushings that need replacement.
Great idea of a pivot moving tool. I used a piece of fence wire, hammered flat then filed to shape and hardened
Your idea will work well too. Once you get used to using the pivot tool you seldom reach for the tweezers when rew-assembling a movement.
Yep it's now my first go to...

Good stuff Scottie, better idea for making a pivot tool than I had (a lot simpler too), Thanks for posting!
It's a very easy tool to make and quite cheap also.
Love your tutorials Sir...I have learnt a lot from you 🙏🏼
Thanks for your comment, I am glad I am helping you understand mechanical clock movements,
Awesome
Glad you liked the video. Thanks for your comment.
Your welcome actually I like all your videos.
