Excellent ideas and demonstration as usual! The deep hole drilling is especially impressive!
Murray Brett
well done It makes you wonder with all the knowledge needed of the moon and planets and sun to make the mechanism. What tools and techniques are lost .
Kenneth Carlile
Gotta admit, I was thinking also on the key role that chamfering the end plays when you're guiding in the drill by fingertip... :) Fantastic, as always!

Perfect way to end my Monday evening. :) Great vid all round. The video work was especially good. The turning tech is the most interesting aspect in all this, for me. Cheers
Lawrence Lamb
Wonderful work as always Chris.

Where's the 'Multi Heart' icon?? :) Fantastic work and information. Several of these procedures I've done on my model engineer's lathe and watchmaker's lathe, but not on my bow driven watchmaker's turns. Extra skill sets in the offing now :D Viva la AKM. Thanks Chris.
