This is my first clock design. My first design motivation was to use bear rings on every moving part and use fixed rods. So the design contains 10 9x5x3 and 2 14x5x4 and 2 6x2x2 bearings.
The rods are 2mm steel, 4x3(outer,inside) steel, and 3mm brass rods. The number of rods and sizes can be checked from the design files.
Creating your own clock design is a great fun, where you can have tones of opportunities of design patterns on clock base, gears etc. It makes the design very personel. This was a strong motivation to start this clock.
This is my first design. So I still have open issues with the design, like:
- some screw positions are hard to reach (my solution: not necessary)
- some bearing positions are loose for its bearing. (my solution: glue)
- winding is not well designed (my solution: hold the weight by hand, wind the gears manually)
- adjusting hand and minute hands is not ergonomic. (my solution: I keep the rods a little long inside them to keep friction good
