admiralsas 0 Posted September 5, 2011 From that "genius":Now using a large plastic marker or a thin hard plastic cylinder of some sort which resembles the crystal in diameter if its too thin it will put too much shear stress on the glass and it will crack. Firmly hold it a-top the crystal and tap on it with a hammer or heavy object, as you do this keep the glass aligned with the opening with your fingers. after a few hard taps it will be back in and snug. Why the hell you didn't ask Mike, HOW to do it??? I'm new here. Just trying to find my way B) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chum_2000_uk 0 Posted September 5, 2011 Looks at all my attempts at watchmaking. I now have two rep GMTs in pieces, both completely fooked. One day I will get the right tools for the job and have the patience to learn properly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One day I will get the right tools for the job and have the patience to learn properly. Ya I feel like a total n00b but after looking around RWG and seeing Kenny's post about his modded GMT, I really want to get the right tools. I'm actually researching what I need in future adventures too. Lots of very knowledgeable people on here. It's like the round table of awesome. ..
