Teach a child to tell the time

The teaching clock can be an engaging and interactive 3D printing project that serves as a teaching aid on two distinct levels. Firstly, it helps young children learn to tell time using a traditional clock rather than relying solely on their smartphones. Secondly, the mechanism employed in this project presents a novel approach to achieving the 12:1 ratio between the hour and minute hands, which can be understood by referring to the Ferguson paradox explained at http://www.woodenclocks.co.uk/page72.html on my website woodenclocks. This project is relatively simple, requiring minimal supports and only some adjustments to ensure proper fitment of the main shaft. The clock's design allows for easy handling using the round handle on its back, making it suitable for both teachers and students to interact with. By turning the hands, either the teacher or child can set a specific time for learning purposes. As a beginner in 3D printing, I have just completed my second project using the Zortrax M200 printer. While I am still gaining confidence in operating the device, I was unable to determine optimal settings for producing parts for this teaching clock project. My first experience with 3D printing involved creating an actual skeleton clock after years of specializing in woodwork clocks.
