Every gear, even the spring and key to wind it made by hand. Unbelievable dedication.

A thousand hours using CAD and machines: Now I'm even more impressed by the craftsmen of the olden days than I used to be.

Wow! Amazing. Thanks for posting the video of the bluing. I can see what I'll be doing over the Christmas holidays. Watching the rest of his videos. This may actually be better than watching the project Binky videos.

OK, I'm pretty sure, with all of the fancy equipment his videos and some guidance, I could make my own screw.
But what I shudder to think about is the act of making several identical screws.
