บท 874: Watchmaking (2)

Eisen grabbed the small crucible, pouring the liquid hot steel into the moulds. It didn't take them all too long to cool down either, as the moulds had been specifically enchanted to speed up the process. That meant that Eisen could grab the small parts very quickly, starting to detach the gears, plates, and springs from it.

He sorted all the pieces into a smaller, segmented box depending on the specific size and shape of piece, like how many teeth the gears had or how strong the springs were.

Once he did, he glanced over at the couple dozen wooden casings that he made for the watches that he was about to put together, grabbing the first to get to work. He grabbed all the pieces that he needed, using tweezers to put them into the correct positions. This was a very finicky job, so he had to go relatively slowly, but at the same time, it was relaxing enough, letting the old man dive into the work headfirst without having to think too much about what he was doing.
