Morbier Clock, 'Marciac'. Cage.

Now all the bits are removed i can re-paint the cage and pendulum hanger (?). An easy job, a quick brush with a wire brush and sand paper and then once more on with a thinned down coat of hammerite. I prefer this as the character of the old piece shows through but is uniformly coated and protected. I have left the brass uncoated and the bushing in the central support still has tape over it that i will pull off when all is dry. The bushing itself i have just run through with a pice of string to clean.

Next job, this box of bits, funny how easy it is to take things apart!
