  • Building a new clock or repairing an existing one - here I go through the steps to assemble the little battery operated quartz clock movements if you're building your own clock.
    You can buy these things at most hobby stores, on amazon, and on sites like www.klockit.com.

    So I found you tonight. You helped me build my first clock!!! I'm so excited. You explained everything so well. I almost gave up until I found you. Thank you.

    Nice description of the installation process. I especially liked the “meeep” sound effect that you added!

    You are the best thus far that I've seen on the mechanism. Thankyou!

    Aww, man, 12:17, you did such a great job of explaining and demonstrating for the mechanism not to work. Like you said I will test it first. Thank you again so much!💯👌👍

    I wish I had found this first (before trying it on my own) - 5th time's a charm! I purchased the exact replacement mechanism, which made this video extra simple to follow. THANK YOU!

    Thank you for this video! Bought a clock mechanism for my round that I painted on for a clock! Ordered a mechanism from Amazon and now have to send it back because the screw from mechanism didn't go through to the other side to put the hands. Just what you were saying. Alas, you are so right. Took me forever to find the right size hands. Looked on a ton of web sites. I am disappointed I will not have it working today, but your video was very informative and will come back to it again once I get the correct fit! Thank you so much! Bunny Hart 😊🐇💕

    Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! You answered so many questions. I was intimidated about making a ⌚ but with your help I think I can do it

    Great video and tutorial. Now got to get myself a pendulum one (luckily I still kept the clock instead of chucking the whole clock away four years ago) as well as a normal movement one on another clock which died last month.

    24:15 i cut a fishshape (i have a fish tank xD) out of some acrylic and printed (at work we have a UV printer, that can print on flat things 👍) numbers on the back fin and some other stuff on the rest, and a clock was born xD
    i bought a complete clock kit (2 hour hands, 2 minute hands and one second hand included) at a local electronic store (cost: about 12€, so about 14$) and i was really lucky that it worked.. because i didn't know anything about clock making, and i bought one with a really short golden thingie (to use the technical term...) that almost wasn't long enough for the thickness of the acrylic xD
    i wish i had seen your tutorial before making one! you are a professional :) 👍👍

    Great video. What's the name of the $20 tool you use to screw on the tiny nut? Also, what is the name of the tool you used to tighten the mechanism ? Thanks!

      You know what? I can't find them anymore! Which sucks because I managed to lose the one I had. I went searching like mad trying to find a replacement, and I can't find them anywhere anymore.

    Thanks. Do you know anyone who shows HOW to WIRE-UP a quartz movement with a CHIME MOVEMENT?
    I have everything else together fine, but the instructions for connecting the wires, from movement TO Chime box mechanism isn’t clear... And THEN, setting the Chimes in sync with the TIME, is impossible to understand.
    I can’t wait until NOTHING is #MadeInChina🇨🇳 ‘cause, ALL their instructions are written in some Chinese syntax that never ever makes sense in English. 🙏 again

    Sat through this waiting to see a quartz clock mechanism disasembled/reassembled and it never happened once. Don't bother watching this. Just full of useless information on how to attach movements to clocks which anybody with a bit of sense can do.
