Germany already had a long history of fine clock-making just before the Cuckoo Clock came on the scene. Artisans had been making ornate clocks entirely by hand, such as all of the gears and moving parts inside as well as the casing and decorations. The very first Cuckoo Clock and those following in the early years of production had been also produced entirely by hand. Later, the use of metal parts plus the incorporation of the pendulum provided additional accurate timekeeping. A pendulum clock has a weight at the end that, once swinging, swings back and forth at the exact same rate all of the time and moves the gears continuously. Little weights hanging from under the clock, generally in the shape of pinecones on a Cuckoo Clock, are pulled on a standard basis to continue the pendulum's swing and maintain accurate time. The mechanism that makes the clock go "coo-coo" is still used today: bellows that push air by means of smaller pipes, comparable to how a pipe organ works.
