So today I started to remake the escapement support. The one that I made a while back looks like this.
Although I could probably make this work just fine, I decided I wanted to make it look more like the original and also take a little more time on it to get it to look a little nicer. Anyway I started on the post portion that actually connects to the frame. Unfortunately I made a mistake that cost me about 2 hours. Oh well...
After the mistake, I restarted. I should be able to finish it up tomorrow. When I am done, I will post some pictures I took today as well as a side by side comparison of the old and new piece.
A chronicle of my attempts to create an early clock using only traditional techniques.

Not as much progress today as I wanted.
