To use organically shaped gears for wooden clocks you would just need to use wheel:pinion combinations that resulted in a 60:1 or 12:1 drivetrain ratio. For example, the minute hand a 6:1 wheel:pinion ratio paired with a 10:1 wheel:pinion set would give a 60:1 result. So 6:1 paired with 10:1, or 5:1 paired with 12:1, or 4:1 paired with 15:1, or 3:1 paired with 20:1, or 2:1 paired with 30:1 would all work for the 60:1 ratio needed for the minute hand. Then you just lay the paper templates on top as you have shown. Thanks for sharing, I had no idea how these were made until now.
That is very ingenious, I appreciate the artistic approach. This reminds me of a project back in Freshman year, my teacher was Toshio Odate. It is pretty admirable for you to share. Thank you.
Thanks for giving me inspiration for something cool to make for or make together with my lil boy =) Never been much of a handyman but this looks like fun!
Very Creative &Educational Clayton!! I cannot believe some of the inconsiderate filthy comments some of these viewers has put on the comment section of this video,thanks for sharing,Tim
Really cool. Odd shaped gears look awesome when exposed since people take one look and go "what is going on here?", And then it starts moving and their like "Seriously... how the **** dose that work!"
I think it would have to necessarily true that the ratios are an integer number. Wonderful scheme! Have you thought of a clock made useing organic gears. You have opened up an entirely fascinating area of development for me. Thank you very much
good Work, simple and effective. I'm trying to make a program in Autocad to do the same. I realised that the radios must be proportional. In this example one turn on the left makes 2 on the right.
Man, you're genius! Ammm just for the interest - what avout the loads of such-profiled gears ( i mean loads on shaft at least), which can they be and how will they differ from the ones with conventional gears?
@praky23k Seems to me that if the gear ratio wasn't an even integer, then there would be a phase shift on a gear relative to the other. Since these are asymmetrical gears, they only align one way so there cannot be a phase shift.
Where I live people cut art with bandsaws. You could try a dremel with various diameter drum sanders and grinding barrels. I know old comment, however others may have the same question.
I have a question: do these gears have a constant angular speed? So if you would keep the normal gears connected to the organic ones: would you be able to turn them? I am wondering to know if you would be able to replace clock gears with these ones, without changing the hour & minute indications.
wow! human creativity knows no bounds!. Btw I don't see any correlation with the gear ratio having to be an integer. . . as long as the number is rational i.e. we can have a definite number of teeth on each gear, it should work. But hats off to you sir for redefining the way in which this human being shall look at gears :)
@nutdip Organic food often tastes better than non-organic food because it's more fresh. This is especially true of all dairy, fruits, vegetables, breads, meats and some cereals.
1: 0.5 gear ratio is what you got........were those normal gear radii having ratio 1:2 ?.because the bigger radius of the two has got to be a multiple of the smaller one or else the corresponding organic gears wont work..... Btw great work.
Uh, no. Organic shapes are figures that have a natural look and a flowing, curving appearance. Different from geometric shapes, they are often also referred to as curvilinear or free form shapes. He's not calling them "organic" to refer to their makeup. He's calling them organic in reference to the idea of organic shapes. Something that actual artists are very familiar with.
Need formal explanation of "tracing the arc of each tooth" The paper is rotating pretty randomly. The pen sometimes follows the edge of the tooth as it rotates, then at some point it starts going into the side of the tooth. Doesn't explain exactly when or why.
Well im sure Audio cam before video. Not the other way around. If someone is going to make a 'tutorial' fucking speak about it. What is he too ashamed to have his voice heard ?
This is such an intuitive way to solve the problem. Fantastic work!
Thanks for sharing. And, thanks for not playing ridiculous music while you shared it.
ahhhh! I never thought it would be that simple. Thanks for sharing!

nice simple instruction, no words needed...thank you for sharing
you are absolutely a genius!!!!!
Wooow!!!!
Thanks for giving me inspiration for something cool to make for or make together with my lil boy =) Never been much of a handyman but this looks like fun!
Not gonna work... not gonna work... OMG it worked!
Did You make it with woodprix?
Yes I did
nice work Mr. Boyer
That's crazy, I just picked up your Weird Gear package... Am looking forward to making these crazy contraptions.
Very Creative &Educational Clayton!! I cannot believe some of the inconsiderate filthy comments some of these viewers has put on the comment section of this video,thanks for sharing,Tim
Clever. I wouldn't have thought it was possible.
Really cool. Odd shaped gears look awesome when exposed since people take one look and go "what is going on here?", And then it starts moving and their like "Seriously... how the **** dose that work!"
Thanks for the inspiration. 👍👍
Clever!never though anything like it!well done
Muchas gracias, pues ver como hacer ... sí es aprender. La teoría ha quedado asimilada instantáneamente. De verdad, muy bonito.
I'm picturing either Willy Wonka or some alien ship's inner workings before the hyper drive...Way cool method of expandable geometry.
Wow!, that was very clever!
These are incredible. How long until we see a clock made with these wacky gears?
Beautiful.
I think it would have to necessarily true that the ratios are an integer number. Wonderful scheme! Have you thought of a clock made useing organic gears. You have opened up an entirely fascinating area of development for me. Thank you very much
simple yet innovative thinking..
NOBODY has disliked this. Amazing.
LOVE IT !!! ☺
Great video! Thanks! I am certainly glad that you didn't incur You Tube's added charges if you speak during the video! Saves money in fines.
good Work, simple and effective.
I'm trying to make a program in Autocad to do the same.

Hey did you ever finished the program? I am interested
Man, you're genius! Ammm just for the interest - what avout the loads of such-profiled gears ( i mean loads on shaft at least), which can they be and how will they differ from the ones with conventional gears?
I was also very interested in how you cut your wood. How do you cut your wood?
looks good
Very Clever indeed
Wonderful!
@praky23k Seems to me that if the gear ratio wasn't an even integer, then there would be a phase shift on a gear relative to the other. Since these are asymmetrical gears, they only align one way so there cannot be a phase shift.
that is brilliant!
You're a beast!
Great. I will test it in CAD.
amazing, faved!
beautiful.
what is the best way to cut wood precisely like that??
any tips?
Where I live people cut art with bandsaws. You could try a dremel with various diameter drum sanders and grinding barrels. I know old comment, however others may have the same question.
A scroll saw is the normal tool to use, something like a Hegner.
crazy
Very interesting.
thank you so much :-) i think bout combining this with DIY synth circuits ;-)
What's that gonna do? Is it functional or just an eye catching art?
Amazing!!!
That looks great...^_^...
But does it have any advantage than normal gear? (varying torque or angular velocity or something like that)...
wow!!! ty... now thats useful.........
I have a question: do these gears have a constant angular speed? So if you would keep the normal gears connected to the organic ones: would you be able to turn them? I am wondering to know if you would be able to replace clock gears with these ones, without changing the hour & minute indications.
If the gears are cut perfectly and there is constant contact between them then it should have a constant angular speed.
wow! human creativity knows no bounds!. Btw I don't see any correlation with the gear ratio having to be an integer. . . as long as the number is rational i.e. we can have a definite number of teeth on each gear, it should work.

Cool!
Bellissima idea complimenti!
@nutdip Organic food often tastes better than non-organic food because it's more fresh. This is especially true of all dairy, fruits, vegetables, breads, meats and some cereals.
@antijelly but... i'm curious... what's the point? (it's cool without a point, but would be cooler with one)
is there a ratio of teeth between each gear?
1: 0.5 gear ratio is what you got........were those normal gear radii having ratio 1:2 ?.because the bigger radius of the two has got to be a multiple of the smaller one or else the corresponding organic gears wont work.....
Btw great work.
cool
@zaloo Scrollsaw. Paul Spooner (Google him or check him out on YT) uses a foot/treadle driven one, makes lots of parts for his Automata on one
How are these functionally different from the first two gears?
Oh My God, that's genius, and totally bizarre.
@muyuu As far as I understand, he cuts away any area that was under a tooth at any time.
NICEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Uh, no. Organic shapes are figures that have a natural look and a flowing, curving appearance. Different from geometric shapes, they are often also referred to as curvilinear or free form shapes.
He's not calling them "organic" to refer to their makeup. He's calling them organic in reference to the idea of organic shapes. Something that actual artists are very familiar with.
Thank you, Mark...perhaps you can tell me: What would Mandelbrot say about this??
what is the purpose of such shape? please explain
Amazing, and entertaining. (Not sure why anyone would want to do this, mind you, except that it's possible. Thanks.
@BirdValiant Never mind... 3 jerks came into the room.
Need formal explanation of "tracing the arc of each tooth"

гениально
Interesante
neato
This time I'll use woodprix instructions to make it by myself.
a) double-sided tape !! b) chicken-soup the rooster
did i just hear a rooster?
I am sure that you will find good way to make it on woodprix Webpage.
Noice
Organic? So trendy. ;)
neet, neet.
おもろっ
hmm...
?????
...
whats the point??
No point, probably like you...
It's "organic." Does that mean it tastes like cardboard?
Whats with the silence, Cant you speak ?
The fuck kid get back to class
Well im sure Audio cam before video. Not the other way around. If someone is going to make a 'tutorial' fucking speak about it. What is he too ashamed to have his voice heard ?
You know where to go to get this game free right .3.
