Being a non-native English speaker I had to search for the right word to use. “Exquisite” describes it well: “marked by flawless craftsmanship or by beautiful, ingenious, delicate, or elaborate execution”!
As a non English speaker, you have done better than most native English speakers. Congratulations; the exact word.
Absolutely.
this is amazing, everything you make is like a tiny art peice. i would watch the entire uncut process at regular speed no matter how long. this is extremely satisfying to watch
Hell yeah deadhead..
You could get a good headstart on learning this yourself in the time it would take you to watch it in real time!
@@luipaardprint that's probably true! but i don't have any of the tools to begin practising, and electronics learning takes mostof my practising a thing time :P
You prove once again Chris just how much your skills have developed - not to mention patience and dedication. Just amazing work :)
Thank you mate!
One day I'm going to be able to do something like that. Absolutely beautiful.
im so stoked for when you eventually build a pocket watch (including movement and case) from scratch and we get to see all the skills you've worked so hard to develop all in one project. it's going to be glorious
Breathtaking! Where did the makers mark go? People 100 years from now need to know who made this!
Is this guy even real? I mean what the actual?????? How does one manage to do this and not die from back pain??? I bow before this man! Pure respect!
I'm pretty sure he enters some zen state or something...
As a back pain veteran&sympathiser, for want of more suitable words, finding a comfy position and adjusting onesself at time and pain dictates is the key to all physical endeavours.
Dear @@TheChzoronzon
Maybe he even is the Australian Zen himself!? 😁 ;-)
Best regards, luck and health in particular.
I'm also pretty sure he doesn't do all this in one sitting. I'm more curious to know how much actual time it takes. Even if this is 20 hours of work, that's still less than a week of work time.
@@mungtor In the title it says it's 100hrs, and on his Discord channel he commented that it was over several weeks. As an engraver and watchmaker, I have the work put up to a level so that there is no stooping over, and my arms/elbows are supported. This pretty much eliminates back/joint pain/strain. Cheers
I, as a mere mortal, could not watch more than two minutes without stopping due to an overwhelming sense of "I do not deserve to experience such perfection".
one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen
You, sir, are doing what you were born to do! Absolutely stunning piece! Incredible finesse and attention to detail!
The thing that baffles me, is how does one put a price on this kind of work? The knowledge, skill, and time it takes to painstakingly lay out and hand engrave. Beautiful work Chris, absolutely stunning.
We are grateful for the opportunity to watch jewels in the making, being them screws os stones or plain material, transformed. Thank you.
Amazing patience and skill. Not something I could ever achieve. I'd guess you would make an incredible Neurosurgeon....
You're making lovely tools. I can't wait to see your watch!!!!!
Its amazing you taught yourself how to do this with a bunch of books.
Tirelessly cutting, the hand searches for perfection in the constraint of the intricate design! This was my hobby for awhile. The pneumatic chisel gripped tightly in my right hand, the left, rotating the block. Mesmerizing work, Clickspring!
I'd ask if there's anything you _can't_ do, but I just watched the answer. Brilliant craftsmanship and artistry, as with all the projects you build.
Must have been a challenge to stitch together that many clips and build a story. Beautifully told, hypnotic to watch.
Beautiful! You are one hell of an artist and the care and precision you put into every project or tool you make is unbelievable and astounding! I wish I had half the talent that you do! Even sitting aside what you are making just the quality of your videos are amazing! Thank you for sharing your passion with all of us.
I can't find the words to describe this level of craftsmanship.
absolute bliss, love these chill out cuts. this and watching people make camp in snow is my bedtime youtube viewing
I can never get tired of these long form videos. Your normal content is incredible as is, but these compilations are such so satisfying to see the slow progression through. Have you considered uploading some of these in 1440p or 4k? I understand cameras can be expensive, but with the level of detail and precision that goes into these projects, I would love to see them at the highest quality possible.
I don't know what award this qualifies you for, but I hereby declare you the winner.
All of the awards. If he ever shows up at some sort of competition, give up. We’ve lost as soon as he walks in the door! Lol
Wow, great set up , you make the impossible look easy.. but it’s still weeks of pushing ,thanks for doing and showing so well.
You don’t just do good work you do the right stuff
I can barely even thread a needle and this man is putting surgeons to shame. Incredible precision!
Chris, you are the best! Fantastically exquisite are a few words that still only come close but do not fully describe your expertise! Thank you!
Your engraving talent has blown me away. Just incredible work. Love the videos, and keep up the amazing work. Cheers! 🍻
Phenomenal workmanship, Chris! You make it seem so effortless. But I know that it would take me a thousand years to reach your level of skill. Of course, by then I would probably be too tired to do the work! 😂
Words not sufficient: Giving a "Like".
Crikey, Chris... I don't know whether the effort or the result is the more impressive.
The other chill out video was one of my favorites by far. Thank you for a whole hour! The amount of work on and off screen for this is really incredible.
Bloody hell!
Marvelous.
Nothing short of spectacular. All that work making the faceplate and then risking it all with a slip of a graver, you are far braver than I :)
Добрый день! Очень кропотливое занятие. Даже от просмотра видео устал, не говоря уже о работе...
Wow. What a work of art. Superbly crafted.
Not that I would expect any less from this awesome channel...
All of this fantastic and beautiful engraving on a tool, a lathe face plate. I think Chris is practicing his skills with some clock/watch project(s) in mind for the future. Combine all of the decorative techniques that he has demonstrated, straight line engine, rose engine and engraving amongst others, in finishing a highly precise mechanism we will see something that has us all in awe of the final creation.
Amazing, beautiful work !
Breathtakingly beautiful. You Sir are a true craftsman! I bow my head in awe!
Chris thank you so much for your John Walden skeleton clock I just built a wooden clock very similar and I would have never figured out the escapement if I hadn't previously watched
What a Master of this craft you are. Just out of this world. I first came across your channel about 2012 and continue to come back to watch at varying times. Quite frankly i cannot comprehend the length of time you must've committed to the knowledge and application of geometry, metallurgy, and How many other expertises?? Mind boggling
Absolutely Stunning !
I was not aware of time when I was watching this - I was transfixed. Simply stunning. I think you should make an overscale pocket watch, say about 5 to 6 inches diameter so you can engrave the plates like this and make a real show piece.
It's hard not to express appreciation for this level of skills and dedication to the work. Although I personally love the preciseness of CNC machines and fiber laser engraving, this is the way craftsman did it in the old days, all the time and skills invested just add to the value of the piece.
Absolutely be autiful!
Exceptional dedication to detail, in the hands of a craftsman ...is piece of art work. Well done sir.
Stunning craftsmanship! Video was relaxing and yet captivating with the music! Thank you for sharing!
Absolutely amazing piece. Also, first video I've ever seen where you can watch finger nails grow. Not a bunch, but still a noticeable difference from start to finish.
i watch it for finger's character development!
Simply amazing craftsmanship like this is beyond belief..👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I’m speechless , you are an inspiration absolutely beautiful work thank you .
Again your work is an "Art form" and truly masterpieces that you create! Thank you for sharing the fruits of your highly developed talents. Those 60 minutes just flew by.
Beautiful work 👍
always enjoy watching a craftsman at work thank you.
Завораживающая работа, смотрел восхищалсятакой работой, профессионала . удачи
Wow chris... it's beautiful
To be honest this might be the most beautiful on the tube..
This gives me anxiety. Knowing that one little slip would wreck countless hours of work is terrifying.
Absolutely beautiful hand work you are an artist. Thanks Chris
And for your next level, doing the same thing but with a graver and hammer. :-) Damn fine work.
Hi Chris,
Trusting you are high and dry during the torrential rain you must be enduring in your neck of the woods at the moment. I hope you are not up to your a*** in crocodiles but you and your family are safe, well and draining the swamp at your own pace !!. Stay safe mate.
Cheers mate :)
The patience required for that engraving.... Jesus. Id have just slapped it into a cnc cuz i cant be bothered nor do i have the skill.
Fucking Chef's Kiss Dude! As always you make things look like you are some kind of metalworking magician. Spectacular!
Титанічна робота. Класно виглядає. Ви неймовірнтй майстер.
I'm speechless 😯 Piece of art! 👌
Legend has it, he works in a Mr Minit franchise.
Stunning! Simply stunning!
I consider myself a pretty handy, but man you work is on another world, just amazing. Thank you for your amazing videos.
Beautiful work.
✌💚🇬🇧
Its a faceplate and a piece of art !!!! Amazing work Sir !!!!!
Pure joy watching you work
Thanks!
Cheers mate :)
beautiful work 🙂
Outstanding work and a great build. No one is better!!
I'm looking forward to watching you work on this at the weekend! Just scrolling through, I can see how amazing it is, as usual!
Please make another for daily use. This one is too good to use!
What I gift of talent! Truly amazing work of art!
What a treat!Lovely work , very nice filming.Well done.
Mesmerising
You are an amazing artist.
Magnificent, so relaxing to watch.
Hace tiempo que lo sigo, y me da la impresion de que no es muy mayor, pero tiene un dominio tanto de las tecnicad antiguas como de los metodos mas tecnicos de la actialidad, aparte de jna paciencia y maestria haciendo este tipo de grabados, como el del reloj o el dispensador de cartas
Es una tonteria, pero la tecnica para anodizar los tornilloas o piezas al azul para contrastar y diferenciar con los del resto es fantastico, templar herramientas o la precision trabajando con las limas es espectacular
Sencillamente un maestro artesano
Amazing!!!
Absolutely Magnificent
Best sir,,
Greetings in Indonesia
This is where the idea we evolved from primates fall completely flat on it’s face…
Awesome !!!
Exquisite! TY
I'd like to know the amount of endless hours this took to make this 1 hour and 9 minute video. Truly astonishing work Chris.
LOL, and I think I did something really cool if I do a bit of engine turning on a project.... best regards Steve
Ok this makes sense. On the other video he busts out the fully engraved part like he did it off camera in an hour. Now we know it’s more like a week or two. Still out of my reach, and very impressive. I just had no sense how long engraving takes.
Make it a month... I don't think he's 10 hours/day doing that
man its been awhile since I've watched a clickspring video. fuuuuuuuuuck yessssss
Thanks for sharing 👍 Something that nice, I would be afraid to use.
Hello. The work you do is very beautiful, I think it is art. Have you ever thought of making a singing bird cage automat?
You have amazing talent. I hope you have an apprentice to carry the knowledge that you have.
Класс!👍 Давно не было длинных видео, завараживает эта работа.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
Eu acho esse trabalho fantástico, muito lindo, eu adoraria aprender essa técnica de "engraving". 👍👍
The entire thing grows out of that one spot. It’s the start of the maze.

Wao what a masterpiece
Super!
