Jewel Movement
long before digital watches, I mean 100 years. or more, I've always wondered how?
tiny timepieces were made. As small screws so small that you have a magnifying glass to see them ... tiny springs, gears, jewels for movement, etc.. Any body have any info or a link I could go to find out how they did it ?.... thx. in advance ..
You talk about metallurgy. The links attached to explain how it is done and the story ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metalworking http://www.angelfire.com/ks/mcguirk/mwlinks.html http://www. archive.org / search.php? query = subject% 3A% 22% Working 22Metal http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761557563/Metalwork.html http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/10218a.htm
