Last week the students started learning about the barrel. They continued this week on correcting barrel flatness and concentricity and also learned how to lubricate the mainspring.

After learning about the barrel, Henrik proceeded to teach the students how to check the conditions of the gear train, especially bending the wheels back to flatness.
