Thank you for another very inspirational video! Cant wait until I can get a proper watchmakers lathe. My current is to big for this kind of work. Maby possible, but would be very cumbersome.
brilliant video. I own a lathe machine but the motor does not have a control speed. it seems to run at low-speed RPM. Does this make it harder to cut at low RPM? What kind gravers that you have? Thanks John
It doesn't make it harder to cut, but may take more time. You may be able to vary the speed slightly with the different sized pulleys in the headstock. When the steel is in the soft state, I'll likely use a tool steel graver, but in the hardened/tempered state, such as when I cut the slot for the set lever, I'll use a carbide graver.

Oh, that movment is a beauty!
This is the first vid of yours i'm watching, that movement is beautifully complex enjoying this.
Great video. Putting some soap on it will reduce the scale when hardening.
Wow! Excellent work
Thank you for this fascinating video! Looking forward to the next part.
Excellent video and amazing skills! What kind of graver do you use. It cuts like butter! What is the best material to make screws and stems?
Bonjour, votre outil pour façonner la partie carré est formidable 👍👍👍

Such a great video. Very informative. One question: where did you get your Jasper block?
On the used market. Sadly watch supply houses don't offer them any more.
Lol my baby cat is called Jasper and just had a little private smirk on trying to polish something with a 12 wk old kitten :P
