I am going to cut another clock. This time my own design. This is what I have come up with.

I wish it wouldn't crash.
I find all these clocks amazing. I'd not seen them before i found this site, and can't wait to get my mill up and running.....so i can start planning a router! Can't wait to see some finnished pictures
I agree with kong. I really like these clocks. I've seen them in 'kit' form before but never made from scratch. Someday I would like to try to make one, too.
front

the other side of the front face. Pockets for the dowel standoffs and shafts.

Hi Balsaman
I know you said yor last clock ran for 12 hours before a rewind
will this one be different using these gears
BTW real nice work
Learn from the mistakes of others you can't afford to make them all yourself!
No.....
One way to get more time would be to use double the weight and a pulley at the weight. The string then goes from the spool, thru the pulley, and tied back on the clock.
Double the string length.
The clocks are for show. I don't run the other clock unless someone want to see if it works.
