It's a thing of beauty Brian. I like the look of the cycloidal tooth profile. It's very...clock like.

Its running on the test stand, with a Foliot from another clock.

   

It will stay on test to run it in while other parts are made.

nice to see it coming together

Next job is to get the motion work set up, first the gears are put on the depthing tool, to get them running at the same centres, this measurement will be transferd to the front plate, to place the min wheel stud.

The --minute wheel pipe -- hour wheel pipe --and hour wheel collet all run co axial on the stud.

   

When this is done its on to the dial.

[Brian]

Coming along nicely.

Whilst I don't really know what I am looking at in many of these posts, I'm enjoying the thread and looking forward to see the finished product. Then I may be able to figure it out?

Nice work Brian.
