Book The Watchmaker s and Jeweler s Hand Book

Download or read book The Watchmaker s and Jeweler s Hand Book written by C. Hopkins and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Watchmaker's and Jeweler's Hand-Book: A Concise Yet Comprehensive Treatise on the "Secrets of the Trade," a Work of Rare Practical Value to Watchmakers, Jewelers, Silversmiths, Gold and Silver-Platers, Etc It is a well-known fact that all equally good workmen, in the main, and equally acquainted with the general structure of the watch, are not equally with each other skilled or successful in performing the same thing or things. And, other things being equal, this will invariably be found the result of disparity of knowledge of what are usually denominated the secrets of the trade, or the best modes of Operating on particular or specific points. The practical part of watch repairing, as of other important trades, can only be learned at the bench. But while the sources of knowledge relating thereto are restricted to verbal or oral instruction, it follows, as a necessary consequence, that imperfections and great disparity of knowledge in these regards must prevail, and that new or improved processes, the results of individual skill and ingenuity, must, from the very nature of things, remain from year to year, and perchance from age to age, in ex elusive possession of the few, while the many, for want of available sources of information, are excluded from their bent fits altogether. No better proof of this is needed than the well-known fact that some of the processes known and practiced in Europe for a long series of years past are still unknown in this country, or known only to here and there an indi vidual, who from fortuitous circumstances has chanced to be more highly favored than the great mass of his cotemporaries in the trade. And the same observation applies with equal force in regard to processes in this trade - the results of American as of European skill and ingenuity.

Book The Watchmaker s and Jeweler s Hand Book

Download or read book The Watchmaker s and Jeweler s Hand Book written by C. Hopkins and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Watchmaker's and Jeweler's Hand-Book: A Concise Yet Comprehensive Treatise on the "Secrets of the Trade," a Work of Rare Practical Value to Watchmakers, Jewelers, Silversmiths, Gold and Silver-Platers, Etc;, Being Designed as a Reliable Book of Reference, in Which May Be Found in Intelligible There are few trades more difficult in which to acquire accuracy and skill than watch repairing, and perhaps few in which greater diversity in the modes of operating exist. This arises from the extreme delicacy of the instrument to be repaired, the numerous and often for a time imperceptible contingencies that arise to mar or impede its operation, and the absence of sources of correct knowledge as to the best modes of overcoming these diversified contingencies. Various works have been published on the subject of Chronometry, in some of which, by the aid of diagrams, the peculiar structure of the different instruments employed in noting time, as Chronometer, Duplex, Lever, Horizontal and Cylinder Escapement Watches, have been accurately and scientifically explained. But while these works have been found of great value to manufacturers of watches, in the simple daily requirements of watch repairing they have been of little practical avail. And, so far as the author is aware, no work, aiming to meet the special requirements of this important trade, has been attempted until the present time. It is a well-known fact that all equally good workmen, in the main, and equally acquainted with the general structure of the watch, are not equally with each other skilled or successful in performing the same thing or things. And, other things being equal, this will invariably be found the result of disparity of knowledge of what are usually denominated the secrets of the trade, or the best modes of operating on particular or specific points. The practical part of watch repairing, as of other important trades, can only be learned at the bench. But while the sources of knowledge relating thereto are restricted to verbal or oral instruction, it follows, as a necessary consequence, that imperfections and great disparity of knowledge in these regards must prevail, and that new or improved processes, the results of individual skill and ingenuity, must, from the very nature of things, remain from year to year, and perchance from age to age, in exclusive possession of the few, while the many, for want of available sources of information, are excluded from their benefits altogether. No better proof of this is needed than the well-known fact that some of the processes known and practiced in Europe for a long series of years past are still unknown in this country, or known only to here and there an individual, who from fortuitous circumstances has chanced to be more highly favored than the great mass of his cotemporaries in the trade.
