Anna found a really cheap non-working clock at a brocante for €5! We love the style but fixing the broken clockwork movement was simply not worth it.
So we polish some love into it and fit a modern cheap electric movement.
How can you help us grow our channel?

We have the loveliest supporters and followers of our RU-vid channel 'It's a Wonderful Life'.
We remain committed to provide our content regularly, and of late, to increase the frequency of our vlogs. We have and continue to receive, many kind requests, to send gifts, or in some way help us financially with our channel.
We have given this a great deal of thought. Whilst 'Patreon' and 'go fund me' are out of the question for us, we feel the 'buy me a coffee platform' (or for us, a cup of tea!) would be a great way to do this, especially in light of its ease of use and non ongoing commitment.
Any contribution towards maintaining and hopefully enhancing our channel is very much appreciated, but never expected.
Thank you again for all your support and kind comments, and perhaps even a 'nice cup of tea' Anna and Peter

Your clock turned out so beautiful, what a find. My great uncle was a watch/clock repairman back in the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s and I can remember visiting him so many times and he would be sitting at his work bench with his eye piece in repairing watches. He repaired so many beautiful mantel clocks too. Brought back memories. Thank you Peter and Anna.

Afternoon Peter & Anna, that was magical! Nice for the two to work together, Anna seemed to tackle the very fine details and everything just clicked together like clock work! The clock turned out so lovely, it will make a lovely conversation piece for quite a while. It is great to get the mechanism working with some modern instruments. You have a very steady hand for the fine work. It looks great. Well done. Kind regards.

i picked up a Grandfather clock all mangled inside - think someone has had a go at pulling it apart, so not even sure if all the parts are still there. I done exactly the same thing and popped a battery mechanism in the back. It is sad that it does not tick-tock, strike and no moving pendulum, but hopefully one day she will sing again. For now she will just have to look pretty. Thinking about it, I have had her for about 10 years now. How time flies (ha ha)

Looking at a brief glance of that movement, it is in good condition and would not take much to repair / clean. The cog Anna referred to as stuck is supposed to be, it's a ratchet that is part of the system to fine adjust the clock by raising and lowering the pendulum. Lot of videos on YT how to repair. Just always let the main spring and chime spring down slowly before you disassemble it or you run the risk of cutting your hands and worse damaging the clock. Safety third. 😂💅

Good job but why have you built battery-powered mechanism? 🥶 it’s the worst thing in the clock restoration, because it’s his “heart”. This clock, even if optical restored, had lost his worth. It’s not a “hate”, it’s my tipp. I’m renovating old clocks, mechanisms too and I would never put a battery mechanism inside.

You are bringing memories back for me! My husband began his 40 some year odyssey rescuing old clocks and restoring them. He loved bringing them back to life! It began with a colleague throwing out a Kroeber wooden case clock from the late 1800’s . He was able to repair the works and I did the case. Thank you for sharing!
