08:48 PM roycroft: there's a guy in the uk who makes multi-million pound watches from scratch
08:48 PM roycroft: i've seen a couple of his videos, but i cannot recall who he is or find the videos right now
08:49 PM roycroft: in one of them, he pulls out a bar of 24k gold like it was a piece of 6061, puts it in a bandsaw, and lops off a piece of it
08:49 PM bjorkintosh: roycroft: I know who you're referring to.

08:50 PM bjorkintosh: he apprenticed under George Daniels, the first person to create a new watch movement in over 200 years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Nsh8llV5dE
08:51 PM roycroft: i wonder how you get started in that level of the business
08:51 PM roycroft: where your metal stock is worth millions
08:51 PM roycroft: seems you have to start out rich
08:52 PM bjorkintosh: roycroft: not even close. you might like George Daniels' story.
08:52 PM roycroft: i'll check it out later
08:52 PM roycroft: thanks
08:53 PM xxcoder: I can't picture coming up with new movement
08:53 PM xxcoder: my brain is too smooth
08:53 PM bjorkintosh: here's a < 10 minute intro https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NplYClpuP8
08:53 PM bjorkintosh: he's also written a book detailing everything there is to know about replicating his work.
09:26 PM roycroft: so i was just trying to watch the new randy rainbow video on my laptop
09:26 PM roycroft: my kitten who is very skittish and stand-offish, rarely even letting me pet her, jumped up on my chest immediately when the video started and blocked my view
09:27 PM roycroft: i kept trying to move her aside so i could see, but she kept jumping back up to watch the video
09:27 PM roycroft: i guess for her birthday i need to get tickets to a randy rainbow concert
09:28 PM xxcoder: 😄
