About this model
My second attempt at creating a simple, mechanical, weight-driven clock with the fewest parts. It uses 4mm brass shafts, a 1# drive weight, and currently, two ballpoint pens as the winding weight. The pendulum is a 1/4" aluminum tube, and I mounted it to a mirror. It works, but it needs improvement. Specifically: hands a ratcheting winding system a crutch system so that the pendulum does not have to swing as much a clock face a neater way to attach the weights The gear train and escapement are pretty universal so that it may be rearranged (see the not overly accurate previous version in red). This also allows all parts to function with minimal post-print finishing. Note: Gear tooth size and shaft holes are all very slightly offset inward to compensate for my printer's tendency to over-extr…
