We liked the brush finish and chamfer work on the brass plate , nice Dean you are coming along we are happy to be here. Lance & Patrick.

[@DeanDK]

Thanks Lance & Patrick for watching and commenting 😁 Nice, I’m still a little undecided on the final surface finish, some experiments may be on the horizon 😂

[@torusbrane5629]

Dean, this is starting to look gorgeous! Your care and attention to detail really show. I’m also liking the more frequent uploads, I know how difficult it is to film and edit all this while still trying to produce a great piece. Can’t wait until it’s done!

[@DeanDK]

Thank you Torusbrane really appreciate that! 😁 I’m trying super hard to upload more frequently and consistently! 🙏👍🏼

Thanks Eric 😊

[@petelarsen721]

it's nice to see you using chalk on your files, i learned that trick back in high school it prevents filings from sticking to the file. good job Pete

[@DeanDK]

Thanks Pete. It is a great technique especially for softer materials such as brass. 👍

[@kognitionwings4597]

Very interesting to follow your adventures Dean. Keep wishing you good luck. Small steps at a time, don’t be too eager to progress quick to make the next video even though we like it so much. Concluding: I’m definetely not a professional but I think you’re on the right way 👍🏼👍🏼 Good luck

[@DeanDK]

Thank you Maikel! I will do my best, I'm taking one very small step at a time haha! I just wish to capture this journey as best as possible. Thank you for your support and positive comment 👍

great job congratulations, I follow you and please continue

[@DeanDK]

Thanks Aldo 😁

[@Retro_Yak]

Just a minor point but you should really start by putting in the balance and getting the position of the pallet fork against the double roller done first. Then the escape wheel against the pallet stones, and finally the gear train against the escape wheel. By beginning with the gear train if you now follow on to make the engagement of the escape wheel to the pallet stones correct the end result will be an out of place pallet fork that is either too high and blocks the balance or too low and doesn't engage the roller jewel

[@TheVIndings]

As always a very informative video :) ... one question,- how do you invision doing the chamfering, so that each hole you chamfer have the same chamfer depth ?

[@DeanDK]

It would be possible to mark the inside of the hole with a fine scriber then it’s possible to have all the holes to the same depth with the same countersink tool

[@TheVIndings]

@@DeanDK .. yeah .. i was thinking, maybe it would also be possible to use the Seitz jeweling tool with a counter sink tool, and since it as a micrometer function they should all same depth .. just a thought

[@AceNoguera]

whats the name if the tool youre using at 5:01 ?

[@charliebowen5071]

Do not ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever scrub with a file... it will heighten any inconsistency in your strokes..... only push even on brass. Watch the cut not the file
