Hello all! My name is Wasatch and I'm glad to finally be on a clock forum! A german friend of mine (LocuDeer) introduced me to this forum which is how a guy from Wisconsin with nonexistent german language skills ended up on here. Anyway, I've been collecting clocks for a little over a year and have managed to cram 20 of them into my house so far, much to the chagrin of my parents who cannot wait until I finish university and move out along with my clocks.
I've also been teaching myself clock repair for a little under a year now and have done some basic rebuilds on American two train movements and cuckoo clocks with a minimum of injury to myself or the clocks. I've learned a lot in a short time, like the fact that I cannot set a count wheel strike train to save my life (one of my American kitchen clocks still strikes 23 o'clock sometimes), and that a runaway letdown key hurts when you try to stop it with your bare hand, but I also know that I've got a long way to go until I can say I'm proficient in clock repair so I'm looking forward to absorbing as much knowledge from you guys and gals as I can. Thanks in advance for all the help I'm sure you'll give me and I hope in time I can become proficient enough to even help you!

Regards,

Wasatch
