Don't attempt the printable mechanical clock project as it is currently unsuccessful. I have uploaded the OpenSCAD file intentionally for your reference. I believe my involute gears are correct, but the whole gear chain seems too tight. Initially, I used plastic on plastic bearings with ABS, which was too abrasive and floppy, so I switched to PLA. However, it still felt too tight, even after allowing for 2mm ball bearings in every gear bearing. As a software engineer, I'm hoping a mechanical engineer with OpenSCAD experience will review my design and offer advice.
