    What I love most about it is the simplicity of the magnet. When seeing the thumbnail, i was already over engineering it in my head thinking about how the rotation of the minute hand would be geared up in the center so that it moved the hour one…

    Magnets, that's a simple, yet elegant solution and way less complex than what I had in mind, which is running a thin rod through the center of the large arm and stick a diagonal gear to it which would spin the small arms diagonal gear

    • @supraaznpride
      @supraaznpride Рік тому +5

      Do both. Put the magnet into the minute hand and have that connected through gears to rotate the hour hand. That way it would be a true contactless floating clock.

    • @That_Awesome_Guy1
      @That_Awesome_Guy1 Рік тому +3

      My thoughts would be slightly more complicated, but would give a better illusion. Basically, you just glue the hands to two separate acrylic discs and then attach those discs to two gears like in the video. Then you can simply spin each gear independently which would rotate the glued hands. This would make it look like the hands are just floating there completely.

    I desinged something very similar to this like 15 years ago. I never made it because 3D printing wasn't a thing back then and getting the parts made in a workshop would have cost $$$$$. How 3D printers have changed the world for the at-home designer!

    • @joel6376
      @joel6376 Рік тому +2

      Prototyping is easier, for sure, so you could have worked out the kinks before ponying up the $$. But outside of printing circles I doubt many people want layer lines or nasty looking plastic as a clock, even if it is interesting.

    When I first saw the thumbnail I tried to take a guess at how this was made. So I thought I would use a couple of plexiglass circles with the clock hands glued on. Each circle has tooth gears on its edge, and those would be hidden by the outer wooden ring. Then the motor would be linked with them and hidden into the base. Cool to know that there was also a different way to make it!

    Recently I saw a similar looking ring-clock but in a more classic fassion: there was a static vertical bar comming from the top of the ring to the center, holding a regular clock mechanism. When I saw it I thought it would be awesome if the minute hand was actually connected to the ring and moving, with an adjusted mechanism for the hour hand on the "center end" of the minute hand - a few days later I see this in my Recommended list :D
    Thank you Algorithm Overlord for that spark of joy! ;)

    How do you set it up initially? Do you somehow advance the minutes until it gets to the right time? A cool addition for the next revision would be to have two hall sensors at the bottom, so you know when the hour and minute hands cross the bottom part. Then you can make it self-correcting, but adding a wifi module and pulling time from the internet.

    • @MrCreeper20k
      @MrCreeper20k Рік тому +2

      I hall sensor would definitely be best especially if the thing gets unplugged. I do think it's interesting though that a lengthy calibration could have it in tune enough for a year. If you assume one full rotation of the minute hand takes 5 seconds, then it would take 12 hours to simulate a year. So a 12 hour calibration process would have it guaranteed accurate for a year (assuming the motor does not change in efficiency, which is a big assumption).
