New member saying hello!

Hello everyone. I hope this finds you well. I am an amateur watch disassembler with about a year of simple cleaning and light repairs of otherwise junk heap pocket watches.

I think the black and white YouTube videos of the Elgin and Illinois Watch factories, making parts and jewels, using machinery and assembling, etc., sucked me into buying a few tools and broken movements. I have since purchased a few more necessity items and am ready to tackle my next projects. 

I spend my days making and designing musical instruments for a boutique brand, using software, robotic machinery, and practices built on fundamentals I see in all of those vintage watch videos. Very excited to improve and begin to tackle some of my zombie projects that were beyond my know how just a few months ago. Thanks for listening and stay safe during these times.

Chris
