  I have never seen a 400 day clock mainspring that looked like that.

  I just got done ripping up my hands in a futile (and dangerous) attempt to wind a barrel spring.  After about 3 hours of scratching my head, I decided to ask google for an image of a main spring winding tool and this video is what it came up with.  I could have built this instead of shredding my fingers.  Thanks for the ingenious winding machine!!!   Excellent!

  Brilliantly simple, practical idea. &nbsp;Many thanks for sharing this, and shame on the 2,000+ people who watched this, and could not be bothered even to click the &apos;like&apos; symbol. <br> &nbsp; Exactly what have you used on the end of the &apos;cranking rod&apos; to grip the mainspring&apos;s arbor? &nbsp;(Looks like a chuck of some sort.)

  Good job ! &nbsp; (rubbing the crank on a candle would stop the squeaking noise without staining the wood with greasy material)

  Thanks a lot for the video. very helpful. I tried to take so a spring out manually and it is very hard work. Thanks for sharing. Best regards,
