Question for cuckoo clock experts. Please help.

I have a really old cuckoo clock & I am missing one of the pine-cone weights. I was told to buy another weight that was the same weight as the one I have. The thing is, the weight I have, appears to be nowhere to be found, online or in antique stores. The weight of the cone I have is 266.8 grams. Does anyone know which weight I should buy that will be compatible to this one? The cuckoo clock is a one day (24 hours) model. Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you.

Here is one supplier. I have also gotten replacement parts off Ebay. Here is a search.

I have never used this dealer but it may be worth a try.

I would email the dealers with your weight requirements and I am sure they can help you find the right replacement.

Good luck with your restoration! Cuckoo clocks are wonderful!

You may have to have a new weight custom made. Either that or the clockworks modified to accept your new weights. I would take it to a clock specialist and have them look at it.
