This was the first in the series of three clocks to be
constructed on the Unimat 3 lathe. The project was intended for the beginner
and the first chapter of the manual is devoted to preparing the lathe for use.
ie. grinding the lathe cutting tools, making a simple lathe tool honing jig, a
tool height setting gauge, a chuck board and generally getting started. The
clock employs the verge escapement and has a single hour hand. It runs for 30
hours on a winding. No other machine tool was used for the construction and
all the wheels were cut on this lathe. This attractive clock is wall hanging
and needs to be some 6 feet above floor level for the full period of
running.
There are 68 pages and over 220 illustrations giving full details of all aspects of the construction. J Wilding ALL PRICES PLUS POSTAGE & PACKING This is an excellent project for the first time clockmaker. Cutters Required Module 1.0 Book is in Imperial Measurements |
