James Watt's end measuring instrument with micrometer screw,1776, probably the first screw micrometer made. Let's build one with what we have. For more information, check this video; • Why we made the plans ...
I learnt the hard way small things are notoriously difficult to make, especially if they have intricate detail and shapes(my model train hobby) to cut and smooth down. However those pointers came out very well considering the patience you applied in making them. 🙂👍
Hi Michel ☺, nice solution to holding fiddly parts, and they look great, and adding some colour will make them stand out from the dials. Thanks for another interesting video mate, stay safe, best wishe's to you and your's, Stuart UK.
Hello michel, a wonderful demonstration of technique here, I stalled a project a while back making a DTI a la Rudy Kouhoupt and I failed on the indicators miserably. I think I may apply your method as they turned out excellent. Cheers mon ami!
howmuchness and a hold-the-thing-in-place-device... -need to remeber those ones, comming along nicley Michel - why this channel dont have way more subscrigers is a complete mystery to me
Great work, this is going to be a lovey tool. Did you consider silver soldering the sheet metal onto a sacrificial piece of steel. I quite like filing.
G'day Rusty. Seems your material is getting thinner every day, like a budget show. 😢😮😅. Seriously you have done really well, considering the shape & thickness of the material. Well done, should be a good unit when finished.
I don't know why you do that face when you're filing. I love filing, me. At 7:35, I had a bit of a brainfart and nearly died. I thought you were climb milling it. As far as expedient grinding and sanding, it's fine. In any case, "Watt's" version was probably made with a saw and a (does rusti-face) *file*. Maybe even a chisel.
Nice work. I would use a cold bluing product to darken the parts. If you heat them they risk warping. I recently sent you an email to see if you were interested in a used Dro for your FP1. I didn’t get an answer, so I can only assume you are not interested in it. Or perhaps you didn’t see the email. Thanks for your videos.
This is a great series 👍 🇬🇧
Thanks.
Hi Michel. This continues to be a very interesting build. The two “pointers” came out perfectly. You continue to impress. 👏👏👍😀
Thanks Andrew.
Another interest episode Michell
"Keep on keeping on " as Harold at ARW always used to tell me😉😉👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Thanks Kev.
Excellent work and a compelling series Michel.
Thanks Paul.
Great way to achieve the final objective 👍l would never have thought of doing it that way 😀 very clever 😀 you impress me all the time Michel 👍👍
Thanks.
i was only 1/2 way through my morning coffee and it stopped!!! now i must wait. cheers
Your coffee will be cold... :)
Awesome project Michel
Thanks Gilles.
Those primitive files come in handy occasionally, it's all coming together nicely. 👍
Well, sometimes you need them :)
Nice work and good machines,Michel.Thank you.
Thanks.
Nice work the project is coming along nicely. Thanks Michael
Thanks.
Coming along great, Rusti! I especially like the frugality of the build.
Thanks.
Some fiddly parts there you had to make. They came out spot on.
A work holding challenge :)
Still my favourite TH-cam build! I’m thoroughly enjoying this project!
Nice.Thanks.
Really nice detailed fiddley hand and tricky holding work.
Turned out great 👍👍
Indeed, fiddeley it is. Thanks Dean.
Nice James
Watt?
Super Glue is an excellent way to hold parts down.
Indeed, but I don't have any.

You're right. Small parts are not easy to make look good.
The build is coming along nicely Michel. Off to watch the next video now. Aaron
Thanks.
Michel, I'm worried that you'll go over to the dark side and start making clocks! 😊
Who knows?
@@Rustinox only....time....will tell!
Great stuff, really enjoying the process
Thanks.
It still looks like a mystery mechanism but interesting to watch the video. Maybe it can detect water down in the ground, wells? Joking!
Well, we'll see...
@@Rustinox Waiting for the coming videos and the "Aha".
Good to see how you made the fiddly little finger, Michel. The results ofcyour work so far look impressive.
Thanks.
Who needs a CNC when you have a shaper and a hand file? Great solution Michel. Cheers Nobby
Thanks Nobby.
good onya. Had to wait to watch your latest content - been on holidays with no internet..
No internet=real holidays :)
A marvellous approach to both pieces! Excellent results. I like the idea of bluing one with heat for extra contrast.
Thanks Stuart.
Very nice work.
Thanks.

Go for it.
You don't even need to say "primitive" any more... just give us a cue and we say it for you. :)
That's good :)
Really enjoying this build :)
Nice. Thanks.
I think roosters and mowers bother the film maker more than the film viewers...
Maybe, but it's all in the details :)
👍😎
Thanks.

Finding the right word at the right moment isn't always easy :)
@@Rustinox but you do..i think it's perfect😁
those dials were interesting and beautiful again. I'm curious about how accurate that micrometer will be👍🏻
Me Too. We'll see.
Great work, this is going to be a lovey tool. Did you consider silver soldering the sheet metal onto a sacrificial piece of steel.
I quite like filing.
I don't have a burner to do that. Plus, think of all the cleanup that's needed after to finish the part.
@@Rustinox Ok,you are right, it was just an idea. They worked out well!
Grrr 😡. My neighbor’s rooster is going full strength today
It means he's happy :)
@@Rustinox Well, I’m not. 🤨
Excellent work, Michel. I hate working with small fiddly parts. It is coming together really nicely, all credit to you. Mart.
Thanks Mart.

Well, I don't like hand filing. But I suppose you've noticed.

I did receive your email, but I suppose my reply didn't pass. It happen sometimes. I will mail again.
Ok
Michel, you need to blue them like Chris of Click Spring does 😍👍🏴
Nice work!
Thanks.
There is no stopping you. Cheers.
I don't see the need to stop :)
