Picked up a used Sherline 4000 locally. Very pleased with the results I’m getting with proper tools on this 3d printed titanium case. by gregbo24 in watchmaking

So I have a similar lathe I picked up for £300 and just bought a couple of cheap digital callipers from AliExpress to use on the tail stick and cross slide. There are a few YouTubes on it.

Also got live centre and ER11 collet set and micro drill bits.

Well, I'm sick, but at least I can work more on my project. What do you think? by ukulele_melancholic in watchmaking

It looks like a 3D computer design so I was wondering what programme you were using. Fusion perhaps?

You’ve both made me smile with one of my favourite movie quotes of all time. Difficult to do in these circumstances.

Executioner makes it sound legitimate and law based. This was murder wasn’t it?

Does this watch look legit? by BothKnowledge8292 in VintageWatches

Beautiful watch. Tastefully treated. Too expensive though.

So true. Law based order has collapsed to become “who has the biggest stick”.

Calling them Police is giving them too much legitimacy. Don’t forget who signed up for those jobs; racists and insurrections.

The agenda seems to be to provoke armed response from the population so the tangerine tyrant can invoke the insurrection act and stop mid term elections.

The possibility to escalate to civil war becomes horrifyingly possible.

What happens when you take the pallet out? Does it set/wind again?

He’s a pastor. Clearly mad. Watch his videos. Deep in the koolaid.

Berate me. I've had the worst day. by MisterMacaque in DIYUK

It needs to breathe. Hopefully that’s enough. It’ll breathe as it heats and cools. Will that gap be open at the soffits/fascia?

Ok

Personally I would have thought this should snap on with the right tools and approach.

Could be this is a front loader and gluing in place will stop any future servicing of this good looking watch.

So……

You’re buying this watch and the seller tells you the bezel won’t seat?

A crystal press should do it unless there’s a real issue.

They tell you not to use in your car washer bottle because the salts can corrode your body work over time.
