Gear clock prusaprinters

Gear clock

prusaprinters s 5201682 Free

Sooo where do I begin :) I wanted to make something new, unlike anything before, so I chose gears with two diameters one rolling inside other. I had the idea of gravity pulling the smaller gear down as it goes but this proved very unreliable whatever I tried - giving it more infill, hanging somethin off the gear etc. In the end I had to constrain the movement using two side gears and the small gear couldn't be hanged, it had to be mounted on the backplate.Featuresuses 56x56x16 sweep/silent style quartz clock mechanismsnap-in fit for the mechanismno supports needednice design, any color combination possible (I used Filamentum's Wizard's Woodoo to get that amazing glittery blue-purple finish)hangableread from top to bottom so in the gif the clock starts at 12:00 and make its way to 12:15, 12:30 and so on, you get the idea.Bill of Materials1x Backplate1x Hours1x Minutes1x Gear backplate flat3x Gear backplate1x Clock gear3x Small gear56x56x16 mm quartz clock mechanism (55x55x16 mm might work as well) with following dimensions:InstallationInstallation is pretty easy:Screw in all small gears through backplate, in the top use flat gear backplate. On the bottom you need to install minutes gear along with gear backplate. Make sure the gears move freely, you don't need to tighten all the way.Press in clock mechanism, it is a snap fit and on the front push-fit clock gear on minute ring of the quartz mechanismAll you need to do now is to install hours gear, slide it under minutes gear and tuck over gear on top. You're done! DimensionsOverall dimensions of the whole clock is 200x200x30 mmUPDATE (7.11. 2022) - Improved Backplate for more stability and Minutes model for less chance of clock getting stuckCheers!Luke
