Thanks!

Mr. Boyer, you are very gifted. You are one of the few numbered with Goodrich, Becket, and even Harrison (I mean that sincerely) who have inspired me to design my own clocks. I certainly don't mean to steal any thunder from Ronald and his MAGNIFICENT WORK! Thank you both for even more inspiration. Like Newton said, "I stand on the shoulders of giants" - you two ... thanks again!

@@Induku what woodworking school do you recommend for me to attend to learn how to make wooden clocks and watches? Do you offer classes?

@@oceanblue4750 Unfortunately I do not have any information on where to formally learn woodworking or which schools to attend. I mostly learned from looking at woodworking videos on KZfaq. At the bottom of this page there is a list of KZfaqrs that helped me with ideas and tips (indukudesign.com/video-gallery/).

Great video! If anyone is interested I analyze a similar clock and show with detailed computation how it works, and how clocks can be designed to tick at the correct pace. I also bring a short discussion about the nature of time. Enjoy: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/epePfdSqmcm7l40.html&ab_channel=Math%2CPhysics%2CEngineering

I really like this comment and will add one of these steps in all of my videos in the future :)

TOTALLY ! Progress will bring us to our END ! We should STOP to enjoy it ! Bruders, together, REVOLUTION !!

5 years ago I worked in an office. A few KZfaq videos later and now I design and make a variety of wooden models (I bought the plans for this clock and did not design it). Just do it.

@@Induku where can I buy this plan?

Thanks :)

its not my video but thank you and youre welcome!

Thanks, I will continue to make stuff :)

Good luck! There are much easier ways to get a clock if you need one than to build a wooden clock - but none of these methods are as satisfying.

I totally agree:)

Thanks. This is the coolest comment I got the whole month :)

Thank you for the nice comment.

@@Induku no problem:)your work is lovely.please post more videos if possible!

@@pixiechick4367 I am currently working on making chess pieces for the chess board that I made a while ago and will post it once it is done. Unfortunately making 32 pieces takes ages (at this stage I have 17 done!) - but I think the whole set will be nice and will definitely have a video of the process.

@@Induku ok cool!ill be on lookout!!thx!!

Thank you :)

انتبه الى عدد الاسنان. عجلة الدقائق يجب أن تكون 64 سن وهو وضع فقط 62 سن. قمت بالحساب ووجدت الكارتة 😃😅😅

Here are the plans for the clock then! www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/bookpage1.htm

It is nice to use tools but a laser is also a nice tool to use when making things. Whatever makes you happy when desining and making things are cool.

Clayton Boyer designed this clock and has a lot of information on calculating the various things that make it work. Here is a few answers for the some questions:www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/frequentquestions.htm. And here is a bit more on how to design the pendulum and calculate the length: wikipedia.org/wiki/Seconds_pendulum

Thanks dude.

I is still as accurate as two years ago. It does sometimes stop completely depending on the humidity. I think if I give it a service this will sole the problem and make it run better.

I wind it every day and adjust it. It is quite accurate and out by a few seconds. The pendulum can be adjusted to increase the accuracy.

It runs just over 24 hours on a single wind and is quite accurate over this period. I wind it every morning which means stopping it for a few moments and then adjust the hands slightly once done.

Clyaton Boyer has a whole checklist of things that might help to fix the problem in the section "Why doesn’t my clock run? " on this page: www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/frequentquestions.htm I hope this helps!

Is there anyway I could visit with you? Possibly a website or some other way. I live in northern utah

Thanks :) There were several reasons why I did not use the laser for the gears. First was that I started this project almost 4 yeas ago, long before I got a laser. I had 3 gears cut but stopped until about a month ago. I wanted to finish the project in the same way as I started it by cutting the gears by hand (I did however trace them by laser). The second reason is that the wood is 6mm which is almost too thick and 12mm which is definitely too thick to cut through (I could have used 3 and 4 mm and glued pieces together but this seemed inelegant). Another reason is that the burnt edges might be a bit too sticky (there is always a slight residue). To remove it would have been a lot of work - and I think it would have taken more time than just cutting the gears (if I had a small belt sander it might have worked - it certainly would have helped during this project in any case). I am however happy that I did finish the gears by cutting it by hand.

@@Induku Thanks for the answer, i only worked with industrial laser cutters, 10-15 mm plywood is easy to cut with industrial cutters, but the burnt edges are still problem. Other way if cutted with cnc router. I like your quality works.

My answer for me is I made it, not a computer controlled laser. The clock is 400 year old technology, not state of the art 2000's. I just started on this clock, having made a different clock 19 years ago of a much different design.

Thanks. They weight is filled with small lead balls.

Is your weight heavy enough?

@@Richardros18 to be totally honest, I haven’t actually weighed it, it’s an iron cylinder about 25cm long by 6cm wide. I’d estimate at about 7kg but without weighing I can’t be sure. Would you recommend a weight?

@@t.purkess9682 I think that should be heavy enough, might be not a proper alignment of the axis creating to much friction but hard to tell

I have recently assembled a wooden gear clock (one of those laser cut kits) and can may be advise you a bit better now (my previous advise was based on my watch making experience). Firstly you need to make sure that the gearwork runs freely (which you can check when you remove the anchor teeth). If that's the case than you need to make sure that the points of contact of both the anchor wheel and escape wheel are very smoothly sanded and than apply some wax on the anchor teeth and the escape wheel teeth as well.

Every day when I wind it I use my muscle power to lift the weight thereby capturing it (potential energy). The clock runs from this the rest of the day. It does not use electrical energy as most other clock in our house does.

I wind the clock in the video at 11:38. It is with a small crank.

@@Induku Thanks a lot for reply. That clock is marvelous, good job👍😍.

No, I am not planning to make and sell these clocks. You can however buy the plans from Clayton Boyer here: www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/Claytonsite1.htm

It last approximately a day and a half on each wind.

@@Induku wow really?great!

You can buy it on Amazon. It is made of plastic and metal. I have the exact same clock in black color. You have 2 choices of colors, black or gray.

It is a small kit that my parents got me many, many years ago. The name is Unimat - here are some more information: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unimat
