The world goes away for a few minutes when Chris uploads a video. For just a few minutes I can not think about the chaos and unrest that is the world today. Thank you Chris, for 2 minutes and 38 seconds of peace.
Is there a ratio of how much metal to leave when milling the slot? I feel like if too much metal is left the bend won't come out correctly. Also, I just found out that I need to make a work holding jig like that to make holding small parts easier. Great video Chris.
I guess you could cad it up. There's a minimum thickness you want left after milling to make sure it doesn't snap, and whatever that is then defines the gap for soldering.
Chris, was this part close to snapping during the bend or is it annealed and very forgiving? Do you practice this sort of thing before trying it on something you've already invested time in? Thanks for the upload.
Did you stop uploading to your other channle? I started following you at the very end of the skeleton clock...but im not good at keeping updated on whts going on other then what you upload on youtube...your videos are so nice...but i do love those 15-30min vid
maybe you could do a series on making a clock for the average joe at home with some basic hand tools? say out of plywood ? or some other cheaply accessible material?
Just for once I am going to be slightly critical, I think the bead of soft solder lets it down, I would have much preferred to see silver solder, even if it is super EZ flow instead. But maybe that's just me.

It may not seem like it, but by nearly every measure, things are better now than they have ever been. Also clickspring is amazing
There is no better filer than Chris!
I'm glad he didn't take long to form the bends...........I was holding my breath!
And then he added that last little thumb squeeze just to make up squeal!.....lol
Hey Chris hope you are well during these crazy times
Do you count the number of passes with the file to keep it even from side to side?
Thank you Chris for the mental stress relief 🙏😊
Thank you. This works very well with 1/8” steel.
2 minutes 30 seconds and my ‘wow’ counter just went up +7. Love it.
i come, watch and my bloodwork improves, thanks Chris, much appreciated!
Your patience is amazing
Very nice to see this again, thanks!
Work of art! Thank you!
I feel like these clips are like movie previews. I'm anxiously waiting for the feature film. Hopefully one is coming!
Mmm crispy bends.
I'm so addicted to these videos!
That is clever. Thanks!
Please do more videos for the antikythera mechanism
Awesome, as ever!
Unbelievably impressive
That was cool!
Jebus... that was delicate work. It would have snapped for me on bending. Nice job.
never thought of doing score and fold with a mill.. always just did files and a graver to start it. Good idea though.
Finally new video!!
thanks for video. Would you please advise us as to scrollsaw blades and other factors for cutting metals such as brass and aluminum?
Well done 👍✅
Your workmanship is mind boggling.
Sublime
Clickspring Clips?! More like Clickspring Teases! :D
We miss you Chris
Seriously, this level of craftsmanship simply has to stop. It's making the rest of us look bad.
... oh joy ...
You have a lot more patience than me. You don't use the wack-it till it fits like me.
😂

I am all for it. But in a clock mechanism it might be a little over kill. A one ton clock is hard to put a fireplace mantle. 🤣
Hi Chris, nice job. Was the solder you used 60/40, lead and tin or was it one of the non leaded types?
Cheers.
Tix solder , sds has the detail: www.gesswein.com/getSds.ashx?sheetid=587 - Cheers :)
I guess this is for a clock or something and not “the other thing”!!

That was interting.

That was sooo moist.
i'd be terrified about snapping the metal with bends like that! how do you stay calm?
Anyone know what sort of flux is being used?
Zinc Chloride - Cheers :)
What flux do you use
What fĺux did you use Chris ?
Zinc chloride - Cheers :)
Hi Tim. Your workmanship never ceases to amaze. Hope you are keeping well. All the best.
Did you stop uploading to your other channle? I started following you at the very end of the skeleton clock...but im not good at keeping updated on whts going on other then what you upload on youtube...your videos are so nice...but i do love those 15-30min vid
More to come in due course, doing lots of prep work for upcoming videos at present - Cheers :)
@@ClickspringClips every now and then I check for any sort of update and there it is. Thanks.

@@NavinBetamax not quite what i was going for but ok
@@NavinBetamax i think they are close to cinematic
I'm still wondering how the ancients figured out how to make solder, ya know?
Foist!
Spoiler channel!

To much silver solder as the fillet adds nothing to the strength and the clean up is unnecessary.
I guess you don't make content of full projects anymore? A shame really...
