Installing a new Derbyshire Elect Lathe today. Number 97, it was from the first year of DBB (double ball bearing) production, 1949 or 1950. Outfitted with a new Sherline motor and controller with a mount I made, a new headstock pulley from the factory as well as new felt seals and bed cam/clamps also directly from Derbyshire, a new hickory base finished by @whitestonecreates, new oil caps, and a new drawbar it is ready to go. A new quick change tool post has also been fitted, but I thought it would be in the way for the picture. These 60 mm height instrument Lathes take “D” (10mm) collets which Derbyshire originally developed. The “buttress thread” profile on the collet makes it exceptionally strong. This lathe is outfitted with not only the lever feed tailstock and slide shown but also a six station capston turret, double cross slide, steady rest (new from factory), and magazine drilling tailstock. #lindowclockmaker #derbyshirelathe #horological #machinetools #horologicaltools #metalworking #instrumentlathe #clocktools

Some late Friday night engraving on the Gorton P1-3 Pantograph. Getting close. Doing 10 crossing plates for the Lindow Rose Engine. #lindowmachineworks #lindowroseengine #roseenginelathe #roseengine #engineturning #ornamentalturning

From the Redwood Library Claggett Exhibit that closes on Sunday. Look at those fonts from about 1740. I can’t say enough good about that exhibit. It’s a must for any involved in period Americana. #claggett #horology #earlyamericanfurniture #periodamericanfurniture #americanperiod #tallclock #clockmaking

This would be an ordinary tooth replacement were it not for the fact that it was @schwarzwalduhr.lorne second time doing one. Almost entirely invisible and operating smoothly, he moves deftly forward in his education. The replacement material is cast brass. I’m glad to have him in the shop. #lindowmachineworks #lindowclockmaker #clockrepair #clockmaker #horology #blackforestclock

Stu Lord is on the cusp of completing this movement. It will be my first student to make a striking clock. He is now laying out his dial and as well as spinning his pendulum bob and pouring the lead back. It’s a center sweep seconds clock with a central date. He will soon start the woodwork for the case. #clockmaking #horology #lindowclockmaker #tallclock #metalart

Spent the weekend ornamental Turning with some great friends. My love affair with the Rose engine only grows. This is s Lindow-White Rose Engine, one of the early ones. #lindowmachineworks #lindowroseengine #roseengine #roseenginelathe #engineturning #ornamentalturning #ornamentalturninglathe

Someone asked to see pictures of the die in the recent press video. Here they are. The die was built by Dave Youtz in about 1991. The spoke punches have been removed from the larger set. #lindowmachineworks #lindowclockmaker #horology #clockmaking #toolanddie #machinetools #clockgears

Drill jig for tall clock count wheels. This jig was made by Gerhard Hartwigs, my predecessor, most likely in the late 1960’s or early 1970’s and has drilled the holes for well over 2000 clocks by now. As can be seen from the one photo he used a scrap piece of steel from an etched moon dial hemisphere transfer with which he must have experimented. This way these wheels can be quickly and consistently drilled in a drill press. #lindowmachineworks #lindowclockmaker #drillingrig #clockmaking #horology #machinetools #metalworking

Not bad for the first time cutting clock wheels. @schwarzwalduhr.lorne started these under a week ago and has cut over 300 gears. Punched on a Bliss OBI press, grain finished on a Porter Cable belt sander with Scotchbrite, reamed on a Walker Turner drill press, turned on a mandrel on a Clausing 13” Lathe, cut teeth on a Bridgeport mill, bored true on a South Bend Lathe, count wheel holes drilled in a jig, and cleaned. These will make up our period style tall clocks and go all over the country. #lindowmachineworks #lindowclockmaker #horology #clockmaking #clockgears #clockwheels #gearcutting
