My name is Tommy Jobson and I am a horologist (clockmaker). I offer a complete bespoke clock making service based in rural Shropshire (UK). I design clocks around my client's input and ideas and manufacture by hand using mainly traditional methods. I also offer a comprehensive repair and restoration service for clocks and watches. This channel is aimed at giving a fly on the wall view of me in action.
Pultra 1750 Clockmakers Lathe MOTOR UPGRADE
Upgrading my trust old Pultra 1750 by fitting it with a new, 3 phase motor and inverter set-up from Power Capacitors.
I have always fancied improving the motor set-up on this lathe, and when the old single phase motor started to pack up I was confronted with the perfect opportunity.
This video is NOT sponsored, and I paid full price for my set-up, however I would like to recommend Transwave/Power Capacitors if you would like a similar set-up. I have used them for all my machines, including my rotary phase converter, and both their products and service have been excellent every time. transwave.co.uk/Packages

Clock Repair Shop - FASCINATING Workshop Insights - (Tommy Jobson Video Log No. 1 of Many!)
When doing something like this, is it important to recreate the original angular offset between the outer teeth and the pinion teeth? I mean, can you just start cutting the outer teeth at any angle, or does it need to be referenced to a tooth on the pinion?
I am a violin maker watching clocks videos 😊,nice job, you are trully professional! Thank you for your time.
Wonderful work 🙂
I thought Galileo proved that the pendulum, as long as it remained the same length, took the same amount of time to swing, regardless of amplitude. He’s saying the opposite, that once the clocks wound down, the amplitude decreases and the frequency decreases also.
You sir are a genius take a bow
What do you recommend, catgut or wire for fusee movements? What are your thoughts?
Great video!. Thank you very much.
High , I have a Grandfather clock , now in London from Mold in Flintshire with a seconds Pendulum, It will be two hundred in 2026
Very very good job👍👍
This is where a nice NC filter would be nice to have, much cheaper than having to replace a lens 😃
Not sure if this was addressed already, but why didn’t you just make a proper sized pinion gear?
An excellent restoration, (I watched all 5 parts in one sitting.) but at what cost, and who's paying? As a retired clock repairer it looked to me that a good clean and lube would be sufficient to get the old thing in running order for a few years.
Вітаю,у вас є чому повчитися 😊❤
There is something magical about old educational films right down to the rounded corners and dirt on the gate.
You are a true craftsman. Really enjoyed watching you detail every step. Thanks for a great video.
Dan Parkes has his name on Watchmaker Court in Clerkenwell, the building where he and the other guild members worked. Of course it's now refurbished office space for creative consulting agencies.
Excellent series of videos on the English Dial Clock. Thank you!
Very good video from Japan. Thank you for uploading. Do you know how to cut the worm gear? I'm really interested in fötenuhr and want to know.
3:42 oh! Bery bery guddo lol 3:57 watto al yu doingu?! yamete! °o° tasukete kudas- !! 4:20 Oooooh .. now I can see everything
Excellent work
Beautiful job. I'm not a watchmaker, I do small turning and make gears so I am familiar with your calculations etc but what I didn't catch is what do you call the gear cutters you use as they have a different profile to the standard involute? If I ask for a horological cutter would that get the right profile?
Hi. I have a chronometer in a wooden box, can you repair? Thanks John.
An interesting video. The complex, precise work is admirable. Thanks !
🤯 What a masterful job and the final achievement is magnificent!! 👍
you are awesome
Hi. Do you use these two different oils (HP-1300 and 9020) throughout the movement (minus the mainsprings)? Do you use any grease? I'm starting clock repair as a hobby and was wondering which oils I should buy that would cover all my needs. So far I have used some generic "clock oil" + "clock grease".
Ok
Am doing there some u do too
Fanweels
I really enjoyed it. The precision amazed me……Thank you.
How much did you charge for this flawless job?
Beautiful tool🤤🤤 Thanks for sharing Cheers
Being who I am, I became very annoyed that I couldn't see what year that top surface was manufactured. But then I remembered that you are British, and is the year the first or last number in the date code? :)
SIR. congratulation you are a real proffessional.that is a master piece. BRAVO.
Lean, mean, clockmaking machine.
Pete at power capacitors is definitely one of the good guys, he has gone above and beyond in helping me and a friend with issues, and I would recommend him and PC wholeheartedly. Fitting a vfd on a lathe is one of the best additions you can make, on a par to fitting a dro to a mill.
Good to have you back 👍
Great job on fitting and hiding the motor. If you ever need to upgrade another lathe motor, I would recommend using a servo motor. Servos don't need inverters because they have max torque at 0 RPM...max torque at all RPMs. Many other benefits of using a servo.
Video interrupted by ads. Unacceptable. Unsubscribed. Have a good life, goodbye
You can watch youtube without ads for nothing
Thank you for the video Tommy very interesting. Nice to see you back.
Nice upgrade, I'm thinking of doing the same with my. What is the model of the motor?
Just a tip I use a Optibelt 5x3mm it’s much better than fusible and can be fitted without removing spindle.
Nice job Tommy I do like Pultra lathes , I fitted a jack industrial sewing machine motor under bench and converted it to potentiometer on my 17/70 and on my Pultra P type torque is amazing even running slow, both 10mm although the P type has 8mm tailstock
Oh yes the “idiot sheet“ feels like I need them more & more as time goes by 😂
Every inverters I've ever seen are required to be installed in the vertical orientation so they can adequately cool themselves 🤷♂️
Great to see you
Thanks.
Where you been for the last 12 months?
Ahh! I’ve been busy building my new workshop and getting things in ship shape! More content on its way for you.
Nice interesting video like your lathe.
Glad you enjoyed it
