Thank you so much for helping me. My grandma’s grandfather clock was lost to the whole family. They gave it to me after she passed “it’s broken” and now it runs like a top. Each time it chimes, I remember her house as a boy. Thank you

These may be some of the best how to videos I have ever watch on You Tube. Thank you Todd. My mother just gave me her old grandfather clock circa 1974. I I now feel confident enough to service it.

Todd: Your tutorials are EXCELLENT!! I was given a Grandmother clock that hadn't been touched in years and in pretty rough condition. I like challenges soooo... I watched all of your videos and followed your instructions carefully. It took about a week of patience and perseverance but the clock is running and keeping great time!!! Kudos for being so thorough in all that you do!!

Greetings Todd, I would like to thank you for these informative videos you posted on grandfather clocks. They have helped me greatly in bringing back to life an old grandfather clock I bought with confidence all thanks to you after watching these videos! Keep up the good work! You are a blessing to us all!

Although my grandfather clock was a different manufacturer and model, this video touched on several issues I was having and helped me correct them. Thank you !

I’m not sure what would cause 96 people to give you a dislike when you put together such an informative video on something that can help so many of us new to the clock game. Thank you very much, I really enjoyed the video and learned a lot. I’m putting together my grandma and grandpa’s pearl grandfather clock and trying to get it in beat and this video was exactly what I needed. Don’t pay attention to those haters and keep posting great content Todd!

That was spot on. I have been tilting and sloping my clock and still didnt work. This secret worked.. Good work on sharing this. Thanks. I did not take my clock apart. Just played around from the front under the dial and pushed around the base of the pendulum.

Thank you. You made a lot of sense on how to calibrate, get BPH on, regulation, and setting the moon phases on an old inherited grandfather clock. It was moved, and lost its calibration. So it's not run for years. Goal has been to get it running again. Your Pic's and descriptions unravelled all the magic. Great Job.

Thanks for your high-quality advice and demos, delivered by a high-quality video too... I've accumulated five neat antique / vintage clocks all of differing genre, so much appreciated :-)

Todd and the group: Happy New Year 2017.
Todd you are an amazing Professor. I am a retired Engineer and a Commercial Pilot, living now in Florida. You have been my Mentor and Instructor on this matter (Hobby) for me. I have helped a couple of neighbors already to get their Grandpa and Mantel Clocks going again. They are happy. I just want to say: THANK YOU for sharing your knowledge/experience and not keeping it for yourself. Way to be a real Human Being. Now I have something else to do on my experiments bench, besides teaching, going to the beach and watching the CUBS win. :) Take care. Bless your talents!!

Hi Todd,
What a beautiful clock! You did an awesome job of servicing it! I hope it lasts for many years.

May 11, 2022. Hi Todd, I have been looking at my deceased husband's grandfather clock for seven years and for the past few days I wrestled with putting the drive chains back on and could not find 18-gauge wire. I found old telephone wire and used it to put on the center chain. So, now that the three chains are on, I am watching your setup grandfather video. I am hoping for the best. Thanks for the excellent video. I may have to watch it several times but Lord willing maybe this week it will be running again.
