clock Maker

Philip aged 69 working on one of his more complex clocks.

Philip was very inventive, he built this gear cutter to run on his lathe.

A little bit of Philip's workshop showing the plate glass he used as a surface plate.Also showing the great wheel of the striking side in the depthing tool, on a false arbour. Also in the photo are the pins wheel and the plates which are 3/16" thick.

Still very much under construction, this gives a flavour of what Philip made.
