A very nice local gent asked me to look at his English Longcase movement a couple of weeks ago. As soon as we took the dial off it was clear that there was a lot to do. You can see a horrible lifting lever and rack tail in the 'before' photo.
This has been a pleasure to work on, given it involved the fabrication of a new lifting lever, rack tail, gathering pallet, new tooth in the rack, slippers on the impulse faces. Plus all the usual pivot re-facing/burnishing etc
Will have the lines on tomorrow and on the test stand.
And wished to say thanks for any comments to the couple of queries I had on the way with this one on the MB
