Question
melvin, can you tell me how to set fast& slow on a arnex railroad pocket watch, can,t get the spot, its either fast or slow can,t seem to hit the spot thanks. chuck

Answer
Hi Chuck,

Nice to hear from you.  I am glad you are still at it.

As for the question.  This is one of the joys of timing.

Don't let it get you down.  It happens to all of us.

We keep adjusting beyond where we want to go.

My solution is to move the regulator all the way to one side and start over.  Then just slowly adjust it until it is good.

Remember that is it better to be too fast than slow.

Kind regards,

Melvin
