Week 38
This week we had a visitor, Thomas, a programmer who develops software for gears and gear-making tools. He presented a software for watch gear calculations to Henrik and Michael. This tool could be of use to watchmakers and watch companies dealing a lot with various gear productions.
STUDENT HIGHLIGHTS
Workshop A
Daniel, David, and Miguel started their final exam!
Workshop B
Students:
Craig, Ivan, Louis
Craig completed the design and construction of a dual-axis sine plate; a tool for adjusting the tilt of a work surface in all directions.
Ivan re-finished all the steel parts on his 1920s Omega pocket watch. He then compiled what he learned in the process into an instruction book for other students looking to make a snailed finish.

Louis began timing his first hairspring after adjusting the double bend and regulating curve into the proper shape.
Thank you for reading!
