Your meteorite pepsi is one of the best builds ive ever seen. You should start producing those dials on an industrial scale. I spent a long time figuring out which organs I really needed when the last one was up for sale :p

I admire you greatly-amazing work

me on the other hand, I would get all the parts out like this pic-then stand up, belt would get caught on the edge and that lot would fly to every corner of the room never to be seen again

I’ve admired your work over on RWI. Ever since a child I’ve wanted to be able to pull a movement to pieces and reassemble it. 
When I discovered reps I realised this is my chance. Spent what I thought was a lot of money on equipment and proceeded to learn. Learned how to disassemble, clean and reassemble with correct lubrications as I went. Then realised in order to fix broken movements I would need to spend way more money on equipment and gain way more skills. Both out of reach for my budget and my desires. 
Seeing your skills and your equipment made me drool. But this is not for me in this lifetime. I reached my goal of knowing how to disassemble and reassemble and now I can just live vicariously watching your work as being the real deal as a watchsmith. 
Thanks for the post.

There's something  about seeing a well organized workspace with proper tools that is inspiring, comforting and simply awesome to behold.

I would feel confident, based solely on your pictures, sending you any watch I own for repair or service!

I started the repair journey then stopped when I started my new job but this post re-invigorated me to start back up this weekend. Thank you :)

What are your thoughts on becoming a member of AWCI?

Was it worth it?

What cleaning solution do you use?

What's been the hardest part of cleaning/reassembling?

I envy SO MUCH some of your tools... Starting with the electronic view enhancer and (if you have it) the proper movement washing machine.... :drool:
