Turning balance staff, the first promising pice

- In this video i show how i turn a balance staff (or similar to that :) ). I am not a watchmaker just a hobbyist so there can be wrong concepts, nomenclature of parts, tools or something.
There are not much videos on balance staff turning available so my technique is evolved mainly from books and a series of trial and errors.
One nice video however is:
• Turning a balance staf...
and another with a slideshow:
• ☆Make a Balance Staff ...
Steffen Pahlow has a nice video on how to turn between centers:

I was impressed, until I saw your lathe setup, then I was doubly impressed, fantastic work.
i pull my hat for the used tools and the result you got. i have seen other doing worse with perfect tools !!! THANK YOU for the video.
It's tricky enough to do on a proper watchmakers lathe so total respect for making a good one on your home made lathe.
That is absolutely fantastic. The graver look super sharp. Great skill and as you say the concentration is exhausting at such small dimensions ...one false move and .. well you know what happens.
Great idea with the glass for the tool rest.👍👍👍
G'Day Balogh,
Excellent video. I like your attitude. It gives some hope to amateurs like me.
What a wonderful lathe you've made and very precise at that. Wonderful machining
ステップバイステップで丁寧に説明しており、他のユーチューブ動画のお手本です。僕も日本語で解説動画を製作中です。お話がゆっくりなので英語の苦手な日本人にもキャッチできるかも。
Absolutely fantastic skill level.
I've just started to use a graver and it's not easy,
You should be proud of your work, well done...👍🏽
Hi, Balogh Szabolca. Very nice and informative video. Great work..Thank you.
Gratulálok Szabolcs! Nagyon szép munka!
Amazing work! Much dedication and persistence. I cant imagine how many hours you spent trial and error.
One year hobby time :) 3/4 was taken by tool refining and preparation.
Wonderful. Very skilled are you.
Amazing skill wow! Most impressed,
Highly impressive work on the Lathe. Did you you carbide gravers or hardened steel gravers? Just wondering what make of Lathe you used? Fascinating skill level of workmanship shown in your video. Keep them coming!
Thank you. I am using only carbide gravers. The workpiece is hardened and annealed to blue. The lathe is an ER20 shank i mounted in bearings, added a DC motor, pulley wheels and toolpost :) The balance assembly is ready, but there is still an issue in the gear train. Dont have much time for watch repair recently.
Thank you very much for your video it is useful to watch service India
You make better parts that people with expensive lathes, But like I say the best tool is the brain, some have it some not.
:)
Excellent work
Hi. I must say it is impressive what you've done there. Admire! Off the subject - what equipment are you using to film it? Thanks.
Its a simple chinese usb microscope, was maybe 10 USD.
Balogh Szabolcs Thank you. I have one somewhere (used it years ago for a project) but I did not consider it would be any good for this sort of thing.
That was just awesome ......... you are very clever
thank you for good review!!!
The best! Good job!
Hi, great and inspiring video. What kind are they and where do you get your carbide gravers from?
There are many options. Cheapest is from China, but i could not find small enough in square cross section. However, one can grind the tip down to the desired size with diamond coated discs. The smallest i could get is 2x2x50mm from grs tools. One can also try round ones, for example vynil cutting blades. The best (and also the most expensive) options are the dedicated engraving gravers, available in 1x1 mm square.
Thank you so much, I always wondered whether engraving gravers would be suitable. I will try the vynil cutting blades too.
Really impressive. I thought you were on a watch lathe.
Good work!
ÓTIMO TRABALHO PROFISSIONAL, BRASIL OK.
You are impressing me every time, man!
Basically you give an answer to question: How the f*ck Breguet and other fellows had made their timepieces in time when forger acted also as dentist. Wonderful things are always simple.
Thumbs up and greetings from "sunny" Estonia :)
Thank You very much :) we have currently an unusual cold weather here in Hungary. Some say there wont be any wine this year :/
Don't tell about cold weather to someone from Estonia :)
But you have more time for indoor activities, so we'll see more videos, I guess.
P.S. You have some very decent sorts of wine there, I know. I like Tokaji Aszu very much personally :)
@@andreimiklin Well, yeah, you are right across the Baltic Sea from Finland...
good work. best regards
amazing
imazing more video
Hola me parece excelente lo que haces yo necesito uno si UD se puede ayudarme se lo agradezco mucho
Sure, how can i help?
Nice work, especially given the crude nature of your lathe, whenever you have access to a proper machineshop, you should make yourself a better lathe, just look at pictures of boley lathes, and copy that!.. i know you can do that..
That would be nice project to make a proper lathe. Moreover, we have a professional machinist shop with many different lathes and CNC devices. But they are a different department. I was thinking about woeding there earlier but had no time.
Here in the Netherlands we have a saying: "colleagues will do a lot for a case of beer" :)
I used to work in the "Beer-receiving dept." when i was a toolmaker, we made Battery-cases for Harley-davidson motorcycles, sailboat parts, Steering parts for vintage cars, steam engines, clamps for binding Fishing Tackle and what not.. i also made a very small watchmakers lathe there.. and of course my CNC mill..
Haha nice. I was there a few times to ask for parts for my every day work. Took always a bottle of wine with me :)
Fantastic !!! 0.3mm
good
Why not use a micrometer and know how much is coming off etc?
A micrometer would break the piece off, or bend it for sure. After that it wont be concentric. It takes the same time to try the parts on. This way one can see if the dimensions are not to tight or to loose. Final size of the pivots is burnished on a Jacot tool to the jewel hole size. This also measured by testing the staff in place. One can not remove and put back a piece in any collet lathe without loosing concentricity. the Jacot tool is a two cone tool allowing the removal of the work piece.
Дякую вам за працю,а де можна купити такий станок😊❤
Thank you! It is an ER collet chuck in two simple ball bearings. I have built it :)
@@szbaloghдякую вам за відповідь,а чи не могли б ви надати мені креслення цього станку😊❤,тоді я зможу зробити його у нас
@@user-rq9po2zv4k Not this type, but i am developing a 3D printed simple lathe design. Hopefully, i can show it in a few weeks.
@@szbaloghдякую вам за вашу увагу до мене 😊❤
