I have a portaband saw mounted vertically on a ready made table. It has approximately a one square foot of table space. I love this thing. Cuts great. It has maybe 4.5 inches from the blade to the saw body, but for what you do it seems it would be great. Plus, (if needed) you could easily cut a four inch square piece of stock. Thanks for you videos. I've been enjoying them. Subbed.
Thank you for the tour we loved the share, Lance & Patrick You said it well, you love all of your machines so as to not favor only one LOL. Lance & Patrick.
I’ve been waiting for a workshop video!!! So excited about these. Although I enjoy the more edited videos, this informal format is great too! Especially if it means more content. I would take more content like this over polishing editing any day!
Fascinating! You're well 'geared up' ('scuse pun) and so glad you love working on chronometers. My friend has 2 and is selling one via an auction house soon. He loves precision clocks. I haven't read much of what you've said, but have you studied at West Dean College? Presumably you've already completed a course at BHI?
Ah! I knew I could hear a Gent's C7, I have one clunking away in the background. Yours is exactly like mine, even down to the comparatively rare 1 second mercury switch. I have removed mine, the clock keeps much better time without it. Gone too is the large weight at the end of the gravity arm, needed to give a bigger impulse to make up for the losses in the mercury switch having to slosh all that mercury about on every swing. In a similar way the PO 36 keeps better time if you adjust the 1 second rollers out of action, much less friction and you can tuck the 5 second pawl behind the left hand one so that's not robbing power from the pendulum too. (Unless your relay unit uses those impulses. The two clocks mounted so close on the wall will interfere with each other and make regulation much more difficult. I have no more room left in my house, as there are no more walls far enough away or at right angles to allow me to mount any more. In addition to the Gents' and the PO36, I have a Synchronome. We don't hear the clunks now.
Thanks very much for the comments. My set up is not really for accuracy at the moment, just nice to have them up on thee wall. I use the seconds contacts on the 36 so can't adjust them out, but you make a good point about dissabling the pawl on the 5 second contact, I may well do that. All the very best Tommy
thanks for the interesting shop tour - keep up the great work- maybe I missed it but wanted to see your method of staking a wheel to the pinion in one of your videos-
Hi, an excellent tour of your workshop, the chronometer looks to be a lot of work but worth it when done as they are very valuable.. I was particularly interested in your Gents C7 master clock. I have one that was made in 1974 and was recovered from a railway station. When I got it it was missing its pendulum but I managed to get enough info to make another pendulum. Ok not from Invar but it is still surprisingly accurate. I power mine from a simple 12v power supply and its been running with me for around 10 years now. I was wondering what the lever mechanism does that is attached to the pendulum of yours. I've not seen that before.
Thank you very much. Nice to have a C7 where you know it’s history. I have no idea about mine. I do have a Syncronome that came out of Darlington power station though. The lever is providing a switched seconds. It rocked a Mercury tilt switch side to side. I’ll show it in next weeks vlog for you. All the best Tommy
I have worked with clocks for 17 years and im not a CMC you video humbled me is the most serious of ways Thank you I will enjoy watching more of your videos

Amazing workshop.
Это какая-то роскошь. Оч круто.
Fantastic skill
Quite a shop!!

@@TommyJobson Hi emailed you with or sticker address asking you for your address to send you our stickers, great request Tommy.
Very pleasurable to watch. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks very much, great feedback.
@@TommyJobson you’re welcome. Also love your videos!
Thanks for sharing your workshop with us it was very entertaining. I like watching horologist at work and your workshop is very tidy.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Really enjoyable video Tommy, thanks for taking the time to show us around.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the wonderful video, I really appreciate this information because I always learn something new, once again many thanks. Jim from AUSTRALIA.

Take care.
Paul,,
Welcome on board! Many thanks indeed. I'm glad I found your channel too.
Тот случай когда хочется быть похожим на автора.
Респект.
Fabulous collection of tools 😀
Thanks 👍
Brilliant stuff Tommy. That Smart and Brown 1024 has me drooling. Loved the vlog style video.
Cheers,
Reuben
Thanks Reuben.

I'll try and show that in a future vlog for you.
That Brown & Shart lathe looks very nice!!!!
Cheers, swisstoolmaker
I've always loved it.
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Excelente taller, gracias por compartir el video!!! Aquí no tendríamos trabajo para justificar todas las máquinas que tienes. Saludos
Thanks, the machines are the collection of my career to date.

where do you source your metals?
does every clock workshop have a box of altoids, we keep our universal pins in them
Yes it's a rule.
That’s what i call a workshop Tommy, I assume you don’t work from home unlike me.
Thanks. I don't quite work from home, but a few hundred yards up the road is not bad!
I have worked with clocks for 17 years and im not a CMC you video humbled me is the most serious of ways Thank you I will enjoy watching more of your videos
I would liked to have seen it all, but I started to feel seasick at about 3.39 so had to give it away.
Thanks for the feedback. I will look into getting a go pro with a gimbal for doing these Vlogs.
Thanks for sharing your workshop with us it was very entertaining. I like watching horologist at work and your workshop is very tidy.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very interesting Tommy. Your workshop is very impressive. That kind of machinery is not easy to get hold of.
Thanks 👍
