Yes, the square jars shouldn't need baffles. Hurry up, try them. -

How does one go about removing that metal plate? Has anyone removed that on a dive watch before? -

Some of the skills that always could use improvement for an amateur watchmaker/hobbyist would be: Crawling on the floor with a flashlight and a magnet. Staring in bewilderment at a cleaning basket wondering why 18 pieces went in but only 17 came out. Removing a barrel bridge multiple times because you forgot to install the hack or the setting lever the first time. Memorize the expedited shipping rates from Cousins. Arriving home 5 minutes before the wife so you can stash the eBay packages before she asks "so NOW what did you order?" Seriously, while the ST36 and NH35's are low risk movements and can provide a decent amount of basic skills, I would see if you can get your hands on a higher quality movement. There is a world of difference in working with an ETA2824 or Sellita SW-200 vs. a Sea-gull ST2130. I would look at your last project and ask yourself what your weakest skill or failure was in doing it. Then do it again ... and again until you feel comfortable with the process. You will eventually get to the point where you won't accept "good enough". -

I'm thinking of adding some ss wide hole mesh, i haven't tried these jars yet, they should be about as good as you can get for creating turbulence. When i was weight training i researched a lot about blenders , apparently the best shape for splitting up food particles is a clover shape. Ive never seen clover shaped jars, when i do there'll be 4 of em in my shopping trolley 🤣
