CLOCK REPAIR TROUBLESHOOTING - One Day (9 AM to 5 PM)

This class will help students with specific clock problems that they have had trouble solving in the past. Each student is ASKED to submit at least one question about a clock repair problem they want the instructor to discuss and solve in the class. The instructor would prefer to see a lot more than one question per student since the class material will be driven by these questions, so the more questions submitted by the students, the more the students will learn. 

Trouble shooting questions can be very simple or difficult; either one will stimulate class discussion and students should learn a lot. So more is better. If a student has a troubling clock with a problem they cannot resolve and would like to bring it to class as part of their question, that will be just fine too. The movements will not be taken apart, so tools are not needed. The instructor prefers not to have Cuckoo Clocks or floating balance escapement. All other clocks are acceptable, even a platform escapement.

Questions should be emailed to the instructor at Yoretime@Verizon.net at least two weeks before the class. If the student does not have email, questions should be mailed to: Fred Tischler, 4516 Barwyn Ct., Plano, TX 75093.
