Watchmaker’s brass wheel cutting engine not dated but c. 1820. Measuring 5 inches in length, and a 3.5 inch diameter brass indexing plate with 7 rows (unlabeled) for cutting various numbers of teeth. This is as I found it and with no apparent restoration. It all works as it should, driven via a bow (not included) with a cutting frame that can be lifted up and down as well as rotated manually, though please be mindful that this is no longer the functional tool it once was but now a collector’s piece and for the serious collector of horological tools..Free Shipping Worldwide.
