    Another brilliantly informative video. I have never quite understood the whole annealing and tempering process up until now.
    Thank you
    Johnny

      Thanks. It is well worth getting a length of silver steel and doing some experiments...

      @@davel831 I would prefer a paper book over Kindle. Buying and shipping from UK to Canada results in it costing me over $100 cdn.

      Hi Paul. Thanks for the kind words. 50 books are on their way. They should land in the US today. Don't know how long it takes Amazon to process? A week? Thanks for your patience. Matthew

    Thank you for the video. I agree completely that using a jewelers saw and a wood V block is meditative. I used to dread when I had to cut out a part and would search for easier methods but I have learned that patience and the correct jewelers saw blade gives me the best results.
    Perhaps in a future video you can describe how to pick the correct saw blade teeth/inch plus any tips on on cutting such as using something for lubricant, etc.

      Hi Harry. Thanks for the kind comments. Glad you are on-board with the jeweller's saw! Gladly I will dive into more tool videos including blade choice as you suggest. I used to like the very fine ones but nowadays just work around what comes out of the box. I'll order-in some blades and get filming. Thanks for watching.

      I'm a big fan of using a scroll saw for woodworking. I haven't tried it for metalworking. Is your preference for the jeweler's saw to do with (other than the cost) the control you gain from a hand tool vs. a power tool?

    I am so glad I found this site. It is the best I have seen that is out there.
    Your teaching is just great. And your passing on skills that will do so useful in the work Shop. .
    Wouldn't be possible to make one on the making of different types of Clock pellets.
    Thank you again .

    A little tip mathew if you are hack sawing in a vice, I learnt this from my farther when i was about 10 years old after splitting my Knuckle. My farther was a top old school mechanic. (Qualified as master mechanic in his day)
    If you are right handed, saw on the right hand side of the vice. This way if the blade snaps as high carbon blades sometimes do or you cut through the work piece slightly quicker your hand will naturally travel away from the vice. If you saw as you are doing your hand will go into the vice and catch your knuckles.

    Where can I get the machine screws to mount the Smiths Enfield movement to the Bakelite case?
    They look very similar to the one you used when making the screwdriver end of the tool.

    • @howtorepairpendulumclocks

      They are BA screws. Not quite sure which size but I can find out if you are stuck. You can find these on eBay. Search "BA" or "British Association". M
