How to Assemble and Test a Sessions Time & Strike Clock Movement | Clock Repair Tech Thursday

Robin is back at the bench assembling and testing a classic Sessions Time & Strike kitchen clock movement. In this Tech Thursday episode, you'll see the critical steps that separate a proper restoration from a clock that won't run correctly. Topics covered include: • Bushing installation and sizing • Cutting oil sinks and checking end shake • Testing individual gear trains before assembly • Pivot polishing and plate alignment • Count wheel strike synchronization • Escapement operation explained • Why the pendulum doesn't actually power the clock • Common assembly mistakes and how to avoid them • Final movement testing on the test stand This Sessions movement has been fully rebuilt and is now entering the most important stage of restoration: testing and adjustment before it ever goes back into the case.
