I think what I’ll do is work on those mainsprings, get them cleaned up, and with a fine grit paper.. clean off the rust, then lubricate them and put them back on the arbor, and rewind them, then just do a little cleaning on the pivots and put the clock back together.

Is it okay to put a spot of oil on each of the pivot holes so they don’t spin dry? And yes, to spot oil some of the gear bearings where they turn, right?

I just watched Bobs video on oiling, so I believe I’ll be doing just fine! Not to get too much or oiling the teeth… got it!
