Smiths Clock Cleaning

I've just cleaned the mechanism of one of my Smiths Clocks. Inside the case it is dated '4 Dec 1950'.


No... I don't normally keep clock parts on my dinner plates - the plate was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

I'm going to need a picture series of you putting all of those tiny pieces back where they go.

Thanks.

PS - your word verification for this post was "tatiness".

I'll take some photos this weekend. I've actually already put the clock together but it's not a happy clock - it's meant to run for 30 hours after being wound up but it stopped short today... so I'll take it apart again. I suspect one of the gears must be suffering from a little 'tatiness'.
