This is a fantastic video! I love when folks display clocks because I always learn a new design "trick" here and there from the giants who've come before me! I think I'll "map" out this clock. I like figuring the turns per hour of the scape wheel, the oscillator vibrations, etc. Thanks again!!! Can't wait for the next one, Mark!!!
Looks like good progress there. I think you mentioned it during the vid, but the pallet fork pins looks really really worn. as a pointer for your secondary objective. looking really forward to the continuation, so keep on trucking!
Good eyes, Lars! Yeah, those pallets are really worn. I've picked up a cheap USB microscope (I've used it in the video), and there is some really interesting damage on this clock. I was going to add it to this video, but I ended up with so much to talk about I decided to make a dedicated video about it.
Such a great intellectual exercise. This gets me thinking how to combine clocks and locks and the movie Thirteen Ghosts where the whole house is like one big mechanical thing.
This is my favourite vid so far. I have a question... You've described the mechanism, but how does the clock keep time accurately rather than moving at a random pace?
Great video honesty I'm not sure how much of it I understood but I don't know what I expected when I've never really studied anything like this before. I just was looking at my pocket watch and watch-ing it turn then thought "huh wonder how that works" and pressed the first video I saw I'm certainly interested in mechanics but can't commit myself to do a deep dive yet Maybe eventually I'll circle back to learn more
Seeking wisdom, I do volunteer work for an 11 yr/old in foster care who is positively fascinated by watches. I’d love to find anything (affordable) to help him learn about clock/watch making. Suggestions? Thank you for your time, and any advise you have to share!
I hope its OK if I post this ... you may delete it if you wish ... I am self-taught, and I wish I could take a course. Your teaching is excellent. As I see it, the scape wheel turns 577.777 ... times per hour or 288.888 ... vibrations per minute with a vibration of 4.814 ... per second. That puts the minute wheel at one per hour. Then the motion work does its thing. How'd I do, professor?
I'd never delete such a nice comment. If you keep calling me professor you're more likely to get your comment pinned to the top. I'm not a teacher, I'm just a student. I only started doing train calculations a month ago, so give me a few days and I'll work everything out, double check my calculations, and give you an answer that is probably, definitely right.
@@ticktockworkshop8169 You'll get to a point where they'll - inadvertently - show the movement of a clock like those wooden ones, and you'll say to yourself, "My that's easy". HAHA!!!
designing a DIY mechanical clock kit for 8-year-olds and this video taught me almost everything I needed
Could you show a link for it please? (If possible)
I would be interested in buying something like that for myself
You ever came up with this for the first time is an absolute genius. I'm not so sure that people today could reinvent something like this.
Idk I think MRI machines and airplanes are pretty impressive too

Thank you, great explanation of basic parts and function. And you did it all in under 10 minutes!
Looking forward to following your journey, can't wait for the next video!
Thanks for the basics. Incredible amount of engineering went into the design.
Awesome! Thanks from Canada's watchmaking student!
Impressive explanation. Crystal clear.
Fascinating! Let''s hope this survives the digital revolution.
Thank you so much, I've always wanted to learn about clock mechanisms. What a great introduction. I'll be checking out that BHI intro course now.
Thank you very much for the video explains hhow does the clock function!

Loving these videos mate. Great job
Thanks, my man!

This is awesome. I never knew clocks were so interesting.
+Ludwig 77 Thank you, I’m glad you found it interesting. There’s loads more clock stuff to come. I hope you join us for the journey.
@@ticktockworkshop8169 Can't wait.
Excellent video
This was fascinating, thank you for such a well made presentation.
this is cool! I have been wondering how a clock works for a long time!
This is a great explanation - many thanks !
Fascinating !
Fascinating ... a great video very well explained thanks
Where did you put the minute hand? I can't figute that out
I’ve always wondered this, why can you only adjust mechanical clocks in one direction?
This is my favourite vid so far. I have a question... You've described the mechanism, but how does the clock keep time accurately rather than moving at a random pace?
Smaller clocks use a wheel with a spring that spins back and forth. Larger ones use a swinging weight (or pendulum). It's called the "escapement."
Great video honesty I'm not sure how much of it I understood but I don't know what I expected when I've never really studied anything like this before.

lovely video,thank you
What's the background music name ?
I thought there was only a power source and a motor in a clock but there’s so much more
what a fella !!! great stuff
What kind of clock is this?
this was very helpful thank you
