  • Hey,

    I Sorta Tried To Build This,

    But It Goes WAY To Fast,

    I Think Its The Chain,

    Where Did You Put Your Chain?

  • The chain drives the top gear. When the top gear spins the other gears will spin faster. This allows the counterweight to run the clock for several ~8 hours, but it is very touchy. I also found there was a lot of force on the top axle (the plastic piece started to twist), so you may not want to gear down the top chain as much as I did.

see all

  • @dinominant Right..

    I Finnaly finished The Gears And Such,

    BUT IT WONT MOVE..

    I Mean The Counter Weight, (Including 10 Medium Wheels With Tyres And 4 Small Wheels With Tyres) AND IT IS JUST STUCK!!

  • Does this keep accurate time and does it have a clock face? Just wondering. Otherwise awesome mechanism.
