Ordered a lathe and it arrived today, looking forward to making custom parts, first project is a winding stem for a 1930s trench watch.
Wish me luck.

This is so cool! Do you do many watch repairs, or is this a first attempt? And can we see the watch?

Wow, that things is gorgeous inside and out. I'm surprised the movement is so clean. Hope it all goes well!
