And people wonder why some mechanical watches are so expensive, these people are master machinists and craftsman-- I hope they are paid VERY wellThank you so much for uploading such almost classified information, its truly amazing
It's a true pleasure to watch a craftsman at work.
sir i am a 67 year old who attempts sometimes with success to restore antique pocket watches.i have a long way to go and i fear i will not have the time to develop my skills. to watch a master gives me inspiration. thank you.
I hope this incredible art is never lost! I used to repair aircraft instruments before precision mechanical assemblies were replaced by electronics and servos, but I never knew how the tiny gears were cut. Thanks!
Thanks you for posting! I am always looking forward to a new video from you Steffen. Your work is excellent and inspires me to also seek perfection at watchmaking. Again, Thank you! John
The extreme precision nature of your work is most inspiring to watch. Your work ethic, replacing tools in boxes and neatness are an important aspect of your work.
I'm a hobbyist living in Aurora, CO.
Thank you for another fine demonstration. Your seemingly boundless knowledge is only surpassed by your patience. Please, keep the videos coming.
A fine craftsman right there! I wish I new everything this man does!
Hi Steffen. Another very. Clear detailed video. Thanks for sharing this rare tool with us and demonstration
Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate this wonderful tool and how it works.I marvelled at your steady hands and attention to detail. Such patience and intricate work. Fascinates and interests me.
Thank you for this. Your videos provide a fascinating insight into the watchmakers art.
You made a informative, interesting video of your passion for your watchmaking tool. It is a amazing art that you have learned. Thank you for passing this information on to us..thanks, joanne
mesmerizing video. I've been watching other guys videos with the same annoying background music replaying over and over.... I can hardly beleive how soothing it was to watch you work with nothing but the ticking of clocks in the background. Thanks for this! I'll be watching more for sure.
Really neat how you explain what's going on with the printed pictures! Your book looks really nice too. Thanks for the video.
This is fascinating, my respect's to a great watchmaker/artisan !
Hi Steffen, , Just to let yo know that I to this day get great enjoyment from your video's. not only are you a master of watchmaking but you could make a name for yourself in video techniques. It is truly wonderful to watch.
People like you are what watchmaking is all about, not about quartz battery powered jobs. I own two automatic pieces and I love them to death.
This is not only wonderful to see, but also wonderful to listen to. The sound of pure skill - k-tic, k-tac; k-tic, k-tac... A sublime soundtrack to a fascinating video. Thank you so much for posting, sir!
I thoroughly enjoy your videos and tutorials and I have learnt a lot from just watching you.
It is good to see a new video from you. I learn a lot from your videos.
Hi Steffen! Im watching you videos on a train in Sweden going back to my hometown. I have been to a watchmaking school here in sweden the last couple of days doing tests and I'm hoping to be able to attend the school next year! Your videos inspire me and i hope one day I will understand all that you are doing :) Best regards /Nils
the old man that hold the knowledge. im smiling with a tear...
Präzision und Handwerkskunst at its best. Großartig.
I just sit here with my jaw hanging open i find ALL your vids so interesting. Thank you for putting txt and speech into english. :~)
Sir may your art never die
Knowledge is Wisdom, Advice follow this guy if you want to be a watch maker!!!
It has been a pleasure reviewing this Video, I would have never known what those tools were.
That is a very neat and useful tool thank you for showing us how to use it and seeing it work
Excellent video!
I could not do a better job then him describing his passion to the publish, he did an excellent video thumbs up like and share..
The designers and makers of that sort of tooling is amazing. As an Old Timer once told Me in the 50's "If You don't have time to make a pot of coffee, You don't have time for that lousy instant crap.
Beautiful tool! Thanks!
There is so much eduction to be learnt in silence. It is such a pity that such material is never indicated to our children in a class. When I see such level of accuracy and such dedication, I sometimes wonder that what do we learn at school is so superficial and not so detailed as one finds when working in silent functions. There is more hidden art, than what is normally seen!
You are truly a craftsman Sir
Thanks for uploading such an interesting video. I have never seen this tool being used, presumably it gives a perfectly cycloidal form to the tooth as well as 'rounding it up'. But how do you know the correct shape of the pinion leaves to match these teeth? Maybe Ingold also had a special cutter for the pinion? I think he wrote a description of this tool somewhere - maybe it's in the Revue Chronometrique.
I have one of these. My Great-Grandfather was a small instrument machinist. I had no idea that these fit together this way, and the parts are scattered around in several separate boxes and locations. For years I've been trying to figure out what that little brass fixture is.
What I have is:
Starret Watchmakers lathe
The hand mill attachment
The little trunnion jig
The Collets for the lathe
Several square toothed round discs that do not function as gears, purpose unknown.
A few more parts.
As a "normal" machinist,I have always been amazed at watchmaking,and been a subscriber of you and Clickspring for a long while.But,at around 2:18,it seems the topping tool has a LOT of runout.Does that not make for an out-of-round gear,and would cause the mechanism to bind?Thank You SO much for sharing your knowledge!
Wow. Do you make watches(inclusive of case, jewels, crystal, etc..) also or just gear manufacturing?
Amazing, thank you so much.
wonderful.i like your job
great video. i have a question. what is the name of the book shown at the end of the video? thnx
I am amazed.
Thank you.
Could a gear cutter with the correct profile of the addendum/dedendum not be used instead?
thank you for posting
Thank You again.
very nice!
What's the title of that book?
ingenious!
Ich bin ja kein Uhrmacher, ich verstehe also richtig, dass die Ingold-Fräse mit dem Hieb auf den Fräserflanken, die Genauigkeit des Zahnrades erhöht, bzw. die Leichtgängigkeit?
Genial.
thank you
Assisti a todos videos seus, são muito bons., gostaria de poder comprar um lathe igual ao seu.
yes! I am 34 now and I dont remember when...I understood that micro mechanics have to be taught to our children. Who invented this tools? And the history of engineering thought
But how do they make the tool accurate? It's an infinite regress.
Tyler Fink Quite the opposite actually. Precision is increased during each iteration of tool making provided all known sources of inaccuracy are compensated for as best as possible. Were this not the case, we never could have progressed from stone tools to nano-tools. Indexing for example improves by orders of magnitude by driving one indexer with another. You could make two indexers with a hack saw and a file, use them to mark index locations for a two more, use those to make another pair. By the end of the decade you have an indexer more accurate than the cutting machine you use for the wheels.Tool grinding is similar, use a grinder to make tooling for a better grinder, use that grinder to make a better one and so on.Folks were making extremely accurate tools and tooling back in the 17th and 18th century, the limiting factor was material science. Modern chemistry did not emerge until after 1900, before then no one really had any idea how to make better materials other than educated guessing and trial and error.You are correct about infinite regression in manufacturing though. It takes a highly precise and accurate machine to manufacture a merely accurate and precise machine.
wir konnen Auch dieses buch als fransosich haben? oder nicht?
Nur in Deutsch und Englisch
Hallo herr Pahlow, wohin kann ich dieses buch kaufen in Swisserland? danke für ihre helfe
aigcess22 oder bei mir kaufen!
auf welche adresse?
Richtig, so ist es, mehr nicht!
Grüsse Steffen Pahlow
hahaha i just had to scan it ok but not today :~)
The book-name is Tourbillon about my passion. You find more details on my website, please google upon my name Steffen Pahlow
Ausgezeichnet!!
Wo ist die fehlende Fräse?
Sie haben nur 83 Fräsen.
Sie sollten 84 Fräsen im Schachtel haben.
Wo ist Fräse Nummer 84?
Verloren?
Nur neugierig.....
Precision mechanic watches are getting old, skilled watchmakers too, even the time
is now old. All we get is cheap quartz watches very poor in craftsmanship.
Introverts need only apply.
