You could always use the traditional method of piercing saw and files.
Thinking about it I suppose files were the original milling machine. Be
aware that the horological approach is different from the engineering
approach and there are numerous traps waiting for the unwary. Harrison
and Martin's clock B have remarkable performance but could still be
improved by using multiple pendulums to overcome the noise effects for
example a two pendulum clock is performing within 1 second in six months
(so far) so I will have to get the hacksaw out for the three pendulum
version - or is it back to the GPSDO.

Mechanical, yes. Home brew, no. It is an absolutely stunning clock,
both in beauty and performance.
Given the fact that a CNC milling machine can be bought quite cheaply
today, i would say that homebrew is easily possible. All you need
is a good understanding on different materials and how to machine them.
(This can be aquired using various machining books out there)
Just to make sure there is no misunderstanding. What I ment here
was, that once you have the plans, machining the parts and building
the watch is easy. Comming up with a good plan is still hard.
