Thanks guys---- the big trick is time(cute pun). All you do is take watchs apart--- bend the pieces to match the tubes and glue them on. I use a casting resin with a high pressure chamber to vac the air bubbles out, put the blanks on a lathe and turn it out. Of course this takes a lot of time and watchs.:thinking:
