Today I had a little Lathe time, as I made a new base for one of my vintage watch movement holders.
The British made Pioneer movement has an alloy base, but the Swiss Bradux holder has a (chipped) plastic base.
Had a bit of spare aluminium rod,
so turned it on the lathe to make a new base for the Bradux holder.
Turned out ok.
