What types of tools are needed to install clock parts?

Asked a year ago
Installing clock parts typically requires a few basic tools. Firstly, you will need a set of small screwdrivers, ideally with both Phillips and flathead options, to remove and secure screws. Additionally, needle-nose pliers are useful for handling small parts, adjusting hands, and bending shafts. A pair of wire cutters is often necessary for trimming clock hands or pendulum rods to the desired length. It is essential to have a clock hand puller to safely remove clock hands without damaging them or the movement. Finally, a good quality clock movement holder or lathe is recommended to securely hold the movement while you work. Having these tools readily available will make the installation process smoother and more efficient.
