So I'm still new at this, this was my first attempt at aging and dial. Clearly went too far so I had this stowed away in my parts drawer.

 

A rough day at work happened and I need to blow off some steam. So I dig into my drawer and find this dial and a broken cartel 3135 along with a case. Also had a Clark's t39 lying around with a cartel insert.

 

Fixed the 3135 by swapping out some train wheels from a broken 2836 and ended up with this...

 

This hobby is so captivating. Now I'm looking to build another one ...idk what.

 

Pics attached, the last one is my jkf drsd

 

Enjoy and let me know your thoughts 276a5e4c7b0a64acad9c4d30bed7e415.jpgd0e51be476c2df94245bb9754e39248d.jpgd5e10a3c1ccdb9448fe35c57730ca67a.jpgacda7b40fb065098a173df93fe6eaa45.jpgdf801c1c2e898d2ec65621ce3227cbab.jpg

I wish I could accidentally build something, anything for that matter. 
It’s beautiful

Hahahaha thank you! It definitely is better than the sum of it's parts. Bad dial, wrong hands to just begin with.
