I’ve been checking out a few videos on guilloché enamel and engine turning work, and this bloke is hands down the fastest, most confident operator I’ve seen yet. I don’t know who he is but he’s obviously got more than a few hours experience on those beautiful machines, top notch workmanship.
I love and adore watching master crafters demonstrate. Thank You, V&A to proof yet again why I adore You as an institution, it's staff and contribution to preserve and educate!
I believed these are more visually effective with a voice over. It is hard to observe what they're doing while trying to read subtitles. Love your videos and content ✨
So beautiful. And that cutter is COOL. You must have been doing this a long time to be so skilled, to do such lovely work. THe enamel, the design....wow.
Hello, I have small remark about the editing of the video: is it possible to put the subtitles up a little higher so they are not blocked when the video is paused? This would really help with accessibility since some people need a bit more time to read and understand the subtitles. Right now the progress bar runs straight through the subtitles when the video is paused. Thank you for considering!
Hi there😊 after you’ve paused the video, tap the screen again (to the side away from the bar/text) and the progress bar will disappear so you can read the text. Tap again and the progress bar will reappear to restart the video. Hope this helps ❤
Fascinating. Any recommendations for artisans who fix old G? I have a piece which was damaged in a fire. I'd dearly like to get it restored. Im SE uK based
The subtitles wrongly called the machine a rose engine lathe. It's not a rose engine, it's a straight-line engine, though both are considered guilloché.
@@b_uppySome self initiative can go a long way! Inconvenience to You is not the museums first thought when making and posting videos. Your choice on how to watch shall be no blame and or reason to complain to the museum. Jmho
@@ande100 This is a video, and it is shown on TV. Museums can lose relevancy if they forget the perspective of the audience and focus on the esoteric alone...
@@b_uppy About everybody who is subscribed to the channel can GOOGLE to get further info if needed. No reason to give a "should" comment. The museum knows their stuff! If I wanna know details about unknown topics, my first step is to Google. Many times a video is self explanatory, if not; I watch the video again to understand what I missed the first time and watch again with greater understanding. The way to learn is to be inquisitive sans expectations of neither deliverance nor content. All accumulated knowledge is a source of judgement ill or well. Jmho

I saw Clickspring do this a few months ago. He had invested in a Rose Engine engraving machine. Quite interesting!
Thanks, I couldn't remember where I'd seen this before, and Clickspring was the answer.
This should have been listed as an ASMR . Wonderful sounds. Great visuals. Relaxing.
Several years ago, I saw a collection of snuffboxes at LACMA, they were like jewels. I love fine enamel work. Tina, Al's wife
I love enamel, and it's fascinating to see how it's achieved
Fantastic! Thanks for showing this remarkable process!

That is very very cool!!

That is a lot of very fine work.
Love guilloche enamel work, engine turning is so nice on old boxes and compacts.
beautiful, beautiful video. So lovely to find out about this art!
I had no idea. Love it.

It takes somebody with general machinist experience a year or two or learn this. It isn't terribly complicated or difficult.
"Brilliant", thank you for posting :) /// John, Perth, Western Australia.
Oh cool, another straight-line engine. Clickspring got one of these a while back, and they always make such amazing patterns.
I really appreciate the videos you create - they are all interesting and relaxing at the same time. Thank you!

@@lov3lou Thank you for the tip, but this does not work on my laptop.
I hope he gets paid a lot for such beautiful craftmenship

Was this queen victorias rose engine I know she was gifted one. And used one

What are you, some kind of Clickspring viewer?
@@wombleofwimbledon5442 Hahaha! Great! I should have looked at the comments before I made my own about Clickspring and his Rose Engine.
how big can you make the plate with this kind of engraving ?
Guilloché plate can be how big ?
Also ASMR ❤ very nice sounds 😊
This looks like a straight-line engine. Isn’t that different from a Rose Engine? Not that it matter, it’s just a nitpick.
Oh wow, just like Clickspring!
Should have started with definition of the enamel...
There's a definition of enamel in the video description area, you might like to start with that.
@@CFinch360
Well aware it's there. Would have been better to include it in the video because the dropdown fails to be available if you watch on TV...
