Minimal Clockmaking

[Brian]

The next part to male is the pallet, it screws on to the verge and is the part that walks along the alternate teeth of the two escape wheels.
Pallets are made to large and taken down until they just fit with the minimum of drop as it leaves one tooth and is caught by the next.
It's all hand work. with a magnifying glass.

Note that the end of the verge has been rounded because the verge is supported at this point and must have minimal fruition.

   

This is probably the hardest part to make
