Question
Clock was moved recently.  Pendalum and weights were removed.  However, now the middle chain is off of the track and I cannot get to it to put it on.  What do you suggest?

Answer
Without proper tools this can be a very frustrating experience, one can easily pop a blood vessel messing with this sort of thing.  I suggest you have a clock repair person take care of this for you.  For starters, you will need to remove the movement from it's case.  Once you get it out of the case you can pretty much see what you have to do to get the chain into its proper position.  Best of luck and my regards WJP
