Craft-A-Clock Workshop

Learn what makes a clock ticktock and then take it home!

2-for-1 Adult/Child Combo Deal!

A child and parent/guardian pair may work at one bench for the price of one.

Description: In this workshop, participants will assemble a clock and learn what’s behind the dial of a time-only clock movement. The movements used in this course are skeletonized, allowing participants to see inside the clock to better understand how it works when it’s running. Participants will learn basic terms and become familiar with the clock’s fundamental parts. They will learn how a clock works by assembling the clock, lubricating it, and putting it into beat, so the satisfying ticktock is heard! Once the workshop is finished, each participant will take home the clock they crafted.

Tools and Materials: All tools and materials will be provided, including a new Hermle Lakin clock. There are three colors to choose from: red, blue, and gold. Selection of color is first come, first served, and there are limited quantities for each color. Be sure to contact Ken De Lucca (education@nawcc.org) after you have registered for the workshop to select your color.

Please Note: The clocks used in this workshop are new. Once disassembled, the one-year warranty is voided. The School of Horology will do everything possible to ensure proper operation of the clock during and after the workshop. The School cannot be held responsible for missing, lost, or damaged parts of the clock during the workshop. Please contact Ken De Lucca if you have questions.
