Your Walkthroughs and Techniques
Post descriptive walkthroughs of watches you have stripped down and serviced and/or repaired, parts you have made or techniques you wish to share.
This is an interesting section where we post our challenges and how we have over-come them. You can also post walkthroughs and share your techniques.
SECTION RULES
This section is strictly for those posting real step-by-step walkthroughs of actual repair or servicing techniques relating to watch repair and/or horology in general. The idea is that we help each other by describing or sharing our repair techniques, or telling a story of how we have progressed.
If you are not posting step-by-step walkthroughs, such as - you would just like to showcase a completed repair job, then please choose a more appropriate sub-forum for your content. If your post is not deemed to be a legitimate walkthrough then a moderator will move your post to the appropriate section without notice. Thank you for your co-operation.

I have pondered such a plan. The unfortunate aspect of my 3d printing is accuracy. Not so great. So if I print something that works, I am almost guaranteed that the dimensions are not what was drawn. My purpose, even if inaccurate, was just to get a feel for the fit. I will look in to these service providers, though. Bear in mind, however, that part of the joy (if not all of it) is solving this myself. Otherwise, I just go mow the lawn or split wood or some other mundane task. -

I hardly have any of myself in the last few decades, though I do have my old passports etc. (with gradually degrading image quality; especially the last barely recognisable one, done in the Post Office dedicated licence & passport booth). Left to right, 1986 (at 30), 1997, 2007, 2018. Once the hair went, I've not really changed. My profile image is from 2001. -

You could get one 3D printed in stainless or titanium? Add the rest of the original detail to your existing model and proof check it comes out OK in plastic, then have it done by JLC, Shapeways etc. Not cheap, but you could get a lot closer the original appearance?
