Great piece! Where did you get those gears? I am trying to make a similar project. I am having trouble finding gears that are different sizes that will still all spin together. Your gears are different sizes but all the same design so they spin well together. Please let me know. Thanks! :)
@MufletsUnite Thanks! All of these gears were custom made then cut with a waterjet machine from a solid brass sheet and polished on a buffing wheel. I don't know where you would be able to find an array of gears like this in a commonly available device. Most clocks have very fine-toothed gears which leave almost no room for error when placing the posts.
