Publisher description
Excerpt from Watch Makers Tables: A Collection of Useful Information Concerning the Teeth of Wheels and Pinions; The Trains of Watches and Clocks; Lengths of Pendulums; Quick Methods of Regulation; Methods of Finding the Number of Teeth in Missing Wheels, Etc So many readers of the American Jeweler have asked at various times for the reprinting of information published in its columns, that we have reprinted the most useful of the tabulated information and present it in a compact and convenient form so that the workman may keep it near him for instant consultation. The science of gearing for the trains of clocks and watches seems to give the younger members of the trade more trouble than any other one thing and we have therefore given it great prominence by including practically the whole of the volume by F. Shouffelberger on "Wheels and Pinions" which was published originally in French for Swiss workmen and is still regarded as standard. Many others of the tables have been taken from French sources - principally from the "Almanac de l'Horolo-gerie." Also many English authors' works have been consulted and liberal compilations made. Several American authorities have also contributed to its columns. It is hoped that this little work shall prove to be of sufficient convenience to our readers to justify its reprinting in new and convenient form. It will not be sold but may be obtained by sending one dollar for one year's subscription to The American Jeweler and asking for the Watchmakers' Tables as a premium.
