Triaxial Tourbillon Model II

thingiverse

I finally completed the necessary changes to my previous triple axis tourbillon design (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2090912). Check out this listing for non-printed components (with links) and a concise lesson in horology. The following enhancements were made: - The fork now includes a guard pin, enhancing its reliability. - Flats are cut into shafts to prevent rapid wear and tear. Previous versions relied heavily on friction, resulting in quick component degradation. - An improved ball race is included without an insertion hole, eliminating the risk of airsoft pellets escaping. - Gear teeth have been added to the ball race, allowing for potential weight-powered operation at a later stage. I still intend to integrate a system that powers it with weights instead of fingers. To see it in action, visit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIDRXZiA96I
