Douglas Wolbrook wt skindiver cattin c66. Craziest Hairspring problem ever!
Переглядів 2024 місяці тому
Restoring a Doublas Wolbrook WorldTimer with a Cattin c66 movement reveals an insane problem - and one that is found on a lot of Cattin C66 movements. If you can't figure out why the watch is running slow, no matter what you do - check this out. You'll be amazed. If you need a Balance (because of broken pivot)... buy one here. www.ebay.com/itm/305269513732?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357...
reattaching balance cattin c66
Переглядів 865 місяців тому
For me, The main trick in re-attaching the hairspring on a cattin c66 balance is to rest the balance in a steel block so that there's no chance of pressing against the pivots. Then I use pry levers to press the collet down onto the balance as seen in the video.

Actually, this is a Jerusalem Cricket. We get them in the Southwest and unfortunately, when seen like this in the open, means they are dying; and horribly too. A parasitic infection makes them look for water until they find some, jump in and drown - at which point the parasite bursts out of their body and lays eggs in the water. Absolutely true!!!

Outstanding work Boss 🫡
now that covid is not in the picture whats stoping you to reach back out to the studios and the people that were interested in hollywood?
It will be faster and we will maintain more control doing it independently.
when are you going into production?
Day one of production is scheduled for May 5th 2025!
This is the only thing I'm looking foward to, I'm sure this film will be great, thanks you so much for your work man.
Same I NEED to see this on the big screen
What chair are you using
haha. An Ergohuman ME7ERG. Amazing Chair
I would watch this movie.
Cool! Hey, check out www.wefunder.com/atmboymovie and tell your friends! :) :)
Love it.
im sure youll make a cool production
Great review. Just got an Amscope SM-4TP Black myself. And entered into another dimension. Highly recommended.
Extremely useful video for a watchmaker hobbyist like me! Cheers!
I have been considering a long focal length scope for many years now. I am also a glasses wearer and loupes can be difficult. You have just solidified my decision. Once my new room is finished a scope just like this will be procured. As far as launching things, there’s a set lever spring from an ST36 that went to the ether two days ago. My current space is multi use and there’s enough clutter that spring will never be seen again! Your flier solution is excellent. When I worked at the kitchen table, I used foam board as a barrier.
Loved this video. The soothing music is a good compliment to the content. I once knew an auto upholstery man who listened to classical music while working. Do you have this playing while working?
haha. No, i work ini dead silence. that way, when a part goes flying, I can hopefully hear the barely audible sound of where it landed (quickly followed by my VERY audible swearing) -- and hopefully find it. :)
Its Truly Money well spent !!!!
I finally took the plunge !!!! got myself a microscope !!!! Thanks to your advice !!!! Its truly a game changer !!!
Saw them at the MGM in 1980. I was there for the Yamaha Dealer Show.
What are the guides that you talked about? The ones you put on the screen?
Curious as well?
I have one my wife inherited from her mother. It does not work and the battery leaked acid. I would love to have it restored for her. Is this a service you offer?
Hi, I believe you are on our FB group. I sent you a FB Message. :)
I must be stupid, because I just pushed the assembly down on a socket on my work bench until tension was relieved , pushed the pin out and eased off the socket! Did not need to build anything or did not lose any pieces . But that's a nice tool you made
I'm glad you didn't lose anything or get hurt... but do check to make sure the spring is sound.
Thanks for this video.Isaac
You should have marked the socket with a sharpie when it was lined up to remove the pin
Great job. Well done. Now, what the hell is that ?
haha. It's a balance wheel for a watch.
I'm intrigued... what parts have you had fly so far that you have barriers everywhere and do they work?
Hi Stefan!! Tks for the video! What is the Maximum Magnification you get with this setup? on the Amazon says 45x, Is that correct? Tks again.
Hello it is nice video of airgun. I love Gamo, Hatsan etc. Please be good friends connected. From t2bkk in Thailand
Awesome set up you have there!
Good restoration. Fine timepiece
So about $600 for the scope and another $300 for camera, adaptor & display if needed ? Great kit.
I wonder if you could laser weld more material onto the worn end of the contact?
Yes, I think It might be possible.
The legendary Stray Cats kings of rockabilly. ❤ You still in 2024 and beyond.
Hi Stefan, I have bought the same camera like your but in my package there was no CD or something with the needed software to start the camera working with my Windows. Can you please share what software have you installed on your PC to have the camera connected to the computer?
I'm using a mac and the HDMi so this is not first hand information: I believe the camera should be seen by computer as a usb camera device without need for software. However, there is also additional software available at this link... download.hayear.com/content/?270.html Also, I have read (I cannot confirm) that the sd chip has to be removed when using USB.)
So I tried disassembling a movement (Miyota 8200a) for the first time yesterday and when I was putting it back together I noticed that one of the stones had partially came out. All I had was a basic set of watch repair tools off of Amazon so I had to make a homebrew version of the metal plate shown at 0:34 to reset the stone. I took a washer, used a sharpening stone to flatten the surface and used an engraver to make a tiny hole for the shaft of the pallet fork. I then placed the pallet fork on it and carefully used a pair of tweezers to push the stone back in place. Afterwards I used a hot air rework station on the lowest air flow setting while holding down the pallet fork to reheat the Shellac. The watch still works but man that was stressful. Anyways I couldn't have done it without this video.
Really glad this video was helpful! Yes, it's a stressful job. The one upside is that if things go wrong, you can try again; shellac isn't permanent.
With your setup what's the distance from your eye piece to the table top, also the distance from the bottom of the lens to your work piece?
From tabletop to eye pieces is 16.5 inches and from work piece to bottom of the ring light (which sits just a bit below the lens is about 6.5 inches)
@@sma1968 Brilliant, thank you that's most useful. Watching the video again I noticed you sometimes looked through the scope with your glasses on and one time you took them off, what's your preferred method? I suppose my question is without wearing your glasses how do you see when placing parts in a tray, do you have to keep putting them back on?
I don't use my glasses at all when working. I'm near sighted so I can see fairly well up close (to about seven inches from my eyes...) If that's of any help... I just need to look away from the scope and not get very close to the tray to pick up or put down or pick up parts in the tray, then it's right back to the eyepieces. @@yesterdayschild1418
@@sma1968 Thanks, Stefan. I now have a scope on order so we'll see how things go with my high bench and eyesight. 🙂
I believe you will love it! (except that you will probably want to get a lower bench.@@yesterdayschild1418
If you want to excel in watch repair instruction you should clean up your videos. Politics is a sketchy highway.
Great job man! Love seeing history preserved. I’m going to really start messing around with this soon too. Got practice clone movements, a decent beginner tools setup, and a time grapher. Do you have a recommendation for a ultrasonic cleaner?
You had me at "I disassembled and serviced 3 watches with the microscope". Thank you.
God I hate these… I have one that runs consistently and keeps good time but the balance is very sluggish and doesn’t get full action. Suggestions? (I haven’t cleaned it yet but the movement looks fairly clean).
If it's running consistently, it would seem that you're, happily, in good shape. Definitely sounds like a cleaning and proper lubrication will be what it needs. As you saw in the video, it doesn't take much dirt or too much oil to make these run badly.
@@sma1968 I’ll try that… I had a really great running donor watch and of course I dropped it and broke the balance staff.
I ran across this video today-about 1 year after posting-and I have a couple comments: I have used an AMScope for about 2 years and after a big learning curve it is all I use during watch repair. Just yesterday, I tried to use my old visor/loupe etc and was astounded that I actually used such low power to do watch work-no way I could ever go back. The early AMScope days were filled with frustrations, as Mike mentioned below the periphery of work was a problem, but I caught on quickly and as time past I began to develop the needed skills to work under a scope. It actually drastically improved my handling of parts and greatly reduced lost/fly-away parts. Rarely do I lose a part as I once did. As far as using the scope for recording work, I think it would be a problem because your hands would probably be more in the way than say a regular camera sitting at an angle off to the side. Overall, I could not possibly be happier with my AMScope.
😢🎉😢
Personally, I think every single household should include a microscope as a basic appliance (even more so as people get older). There are SO many other uses than just electronics (for me), or watch repair. They make things like splinters a piece of cake. Even just a few days a go I had stabbed myself with a piece of 0.3mm lead attempting to close a Pentel Orenz mechanical pencil. I had thought it just left a graphite mark at first - because it wasn't bleeding. So I look under the microscope, and sure enough, there was indeed a little piece of lead sticking out.. It was still really tricky getting it out without breaking it to pieces though, since graphite is actually a dry lubricant. I was eventually able to slowly pull it out in one piece, thanks to the microscope, and even that tiny 0.3mm hole gushed. There was no way that would have been possible without the use of my stereo microscope.
That pcb idea is genius. Thank you
Hi Stephan Your video was certainly not boring in fact I found it of great value and enlightening. I too am into watchmaking and have purchased a similar scope. Have had a few issues with camera mounting. You might be interested to know that another Amscope guy on hear recommended a .35 C mount adapter which is far better than the items supplied by Amscope. Regards Chris (UK)
Thanks for the video. Did you ever try out a 0.3 Barlow lens?
Great video. Prompted by the Rondeau book, and the section in the wonderful "American Wristwatches" (Faber and Unger), I have about 20 Hamilton electrics, a few of which still work. Madness of course, but I was collecting (in the UK) for the pleasure of it, and a love of the American aesthetic in this field. Were I a lot younger (than 75), I'd learn watchmaking, as I tinker around the edges fairly successfully.
Great video thank you for sharing your experience
Great Video. What oil and lube are you using on the movement? Looking forward to seeing the one on the 500 Movement.
Stefan, Would you be interested in working on my Hamilton RR Special 505? It appears to need this contact.
What's the difference with the SM-3TP and the SM-4TP?
Single arm boom vs double arm boom. Double arm should give you more stability. Whether this actually matters, I don’t know.
Do they use the same strings on all?
Fantastic, I am trying to get into the hobby myself , and I like the microscope idea. I will look into one soon . Thanks for your informative video 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
