Cuckoo clock help?
I just want to know if there's a way to take the bellows and internal workings out of a traditional pendulum-driven cuckoo clock and then being able to put it back together again without breaking anything. I noticed that the bellows are held in each by one screw, but is it glued too? And the clock movements? Any way to easily take those out?
It is possible, but I would strongly suggest you invest in some slip-on magnifying goggles or a good quality jeweler's loop before getting started. I would also suggest you get some tools appropriate to the size of the internal workings, and take a number of digital photos from several different angles as well as trying to rely on your memory on where everything goes, and lay them out in some logical order and take a picture of that as well. As far as the bellows, it almost certainly is glued. If you can find what year it was made, you can get a better idea of what kind of glue and how to release its hold. As far as how to take out the movement, it depends on a great deal. If I were there, I am very confident I could do it or show you how. But be careful. There may be some e-clips or c-clips used and you need to be careful in removing them or you could damage something to the point of being unusable. Try taking out of it what you see and if there is still resistance, and there probably will be, then try to see if it is simply accumulated gunk and grime or if there is another fastener holding it. Very small needle nosed pliers and screw drivers may help, but get good quality ones. Cheaper ones may be more expensive in the long run. Looking at the finish is usually a good indicator of quality, the better the finish the better the tool. You might try Radio Shack or asking a jeweler for recommendations. I generally have good luck with Radio Shack's assortment of small tools, but even those I manage to break or bend at times. And a small magnet to help you find any small steel screws and parts you drop may help also.
