A SERIES OF 6 CLASSES SCHEDULED:
CLASS FEE: $185
Students will learn to disassemble, clean, make minor repairs, reassemble, oil and adjust an American kitchen clock. Students who do not have a kitchen clock will be provided one for a nominal cost. They are readily available and are not expensive. Students will receive specialty clock tools and oilers at no additional cost.
The class will be taught by AGSEM Members who are enrolled in the NAWCC and volunteer to maintain the clock and watch exhibit at AGSEM.
No previous Clock repair skills required.
If interested, please contact us!
The History of Timekeeping and an Introduction to Horology
Fee: $175 including a new 1-year membership to NAWCC
(all build materials and instruction by our Chapter 180 team)
Are you interested in the fascinating world of timekeeping and not sure where to start? If you like history you can hold in your hand or maybe want to get into the hobby of watchmaking or want to meet people who are knowledgeable and passionate, NAWCC and Chapter 180 is here for you.
The historical discussion will lead into assembling a mechanical wristwatch. This is intended for first time watch builders who are interested in joining the exciting hobby of clock and watch maintenance, modification and building.
Skill level is beginner, age 15 and above. Participants should have a basic understanding of using hand tools (righty tighty, lefty loosey), the ability to focus and follow instructions, but no prior experience is necessary. Experienced members will be there to assist in every step along the way.
The next Mixer we are hoping to get your hats tipped towards because we are have a Western Cook Out. Bring your boots and get ready to kick up a little dirt with your museum members, and have a real fun time with our museum Host Clocks & Watches and their guest host the AGSEM Admin.
September 7th @ 4pm See You There!
We hosted to the Robotics Class apart of 4-H. They had a great time as you can see in the pictures.
