Watchmakers Face Plate - Part 6
Channel: Adventures with a Very Small Lathe
Date: 2017-08-12

I mill the second curved slot in the face plate. The slots are symmetric, so this slot has to be matched carefully to the geometry machined in the previous video. This is made more complicated by a number of mistakes I made setting out the geometry of the slot.
