How is a basic cuckoo clock made

Cuckoo clocks are traditionally made with a combination of woodworking and clock-making techniques. The process typically involves carving the wooden case, assembling the clock mechanism, including the cuckoo bird and bellows, and then adding decorative elements such as the pendulum and weights. Skilled artisans handcraft each component, often following traditional methods passed down through generations. The result is a charming timepiece with intricate detailing and the iconic cuckoo call on the hour.
