So, does the clock work well? How long does it run? Would you recommend that print? Any caveats?
Yes, it works very well. Like in another answer described, there are multiple run time versions. Im running it in the 15 day a single winding version. Once some problems like too greasy bearings and not too well running gears were solved, it runs just fine. Its possible up to 32 Days but thats a bit of a challenge.
I recommend it. Its a wonderful project.
Its put together just as "proof", to find the cheapest weight. Steel BBs or Lead Shot, used normally as weight for this clock, cost way more.
Yes, the clock itself is mostly printed besides ball bearings, steel rods, screws, fishing line and pennies for the pendulum.
So you're just gonna keep your flour and sugar there from now on? Doesn't seem convenient
Maybe they cook a lot and this doubles as shelving :P
But is cheap.
It acutally is just for fun. Im trying to find the cheapest weight. I already have a printed weight with BBs in it. Im just dumb. And maybe i can sell one.
Nice print!
So you saw the post a week or two ago too, eh? This is on my list of things to print next. How was assembly?
A month ago i posted this clock with another weight, maybe you refer to that post? Assembly was pretty straight forward. It comes with a nice guide. It ran directly after assembly in the 10 day version, i tried 32 days but couldnt get it to run. But ill try again.

Any videos of the clock working ?

I love that clock! I think I came across it before, but it's quite an undertaking to make. But it looks fantastic!
Thanks! Love that clock too. Its not that hard to build. If you are thinking about printing it too, just do it.
