    My silver soldering technique improved dramatically after help from you Matthew. Preparation and the right selection of flux and silver solder are key issues. Thanks again for the video as always really useful.

    As always, this was an excellent tutorial. You have a way of explaining things that makes it easy to understand. At some point, I'd love to see a tutorial on sharpening gravers. For some reason I can never get right

    Thank you for this highly instructive video - I never would have imagined a person could get all this together! One question: how did you choose the angle between the gathering pallet and the warning pin? ...or doesn't it matter? thanks again!

    Thanks Bradford for your kind feedback. With a French clock, when the train is locked by the stop piece, the gathering pallet is fitted at 90 degrees to the rack, facing outwards with the train locking as soon as is possible once the hammer lifting piece falls off the hammer pin. Yes the position of the warning pin is important. Somewhere between 1/3 and 1/2 from the face of the warning piece. More than half a turn and there is a risk the next pin wheel pin will begin to lift the hammer when on warning. Hope this helps. M
