Awesome!


[mention]VanSong[/mention] I love the idea of the sw movement! Do you think there’s any chance for water resistance?
If you look at my drawing, there are actually flat gaskets in 3 positions! 1st gasket is between top plexi and the case, 2nd gasket is in-between the 2 plexi and the 3rd one is on the screw down case back which you need to unscrew the case back to access to the Key Wind crown's of the 8 days movement!

But this is just drawing and concept. Not sure are there technical issues or is doable on the actual product.ImageImageImage

This is fantastic. Should we move this to members project and give it a life of its own?

Hi Emilio, how do you build the lugs in fusion?
Do you fusion them to the core of the case? Or do you build a larger plate and remove the excess from the side and between the lugs?

[mention]VanSong[/mention] : Thank you! And there it was in your drawing all the time, written in red... I do need glasses! Very nice concept - I‘d love to see this built.

Good question. I create them from scratch and then, add them to the main body.

I have uploaded this tutorial for you

Really nice, thank you very much, it seems more easier that the process I was using.

No problem! Another way of doing it is using the revolve tool and substracting afterwards
