Hi Jack, and Wow! What a little ripper! That is miniscule.... shocked

I can see the affinity with watchmaking with the main drive gear...but the art of lost-wax casting is more the realm of jewellery or even more, the trade of a Dental Technician, which is my actual trade qualification, having been apprenticed to my father, who was a Dental Surgeon in Brisbane, and my career in the RAAF for 20+ years.

We used the procedure to cast chrome-cobalt dentures, (Durallium) gold inlays and crowns and VMK thimbles used in Crown and Bridge work.

Your cylinder mower represents the finest example of the lost-wax process.
Just beautiful, Jack and an artifact of which you should be justly proud. wink
