The biggest gear for the new clock is finally finished. This one took a lot out of me! Half-inch brass means some pretty heavy cutting and grinding to bring this part to it’s final form. I’m happy it’s finished and I’m very satisfied with the results.
Next step is the steel arbor with the square winding key. Once that’s done I’ll know how thick this whole assembly is and I’ll be able to add the back plate of the clock frame. Then I’ll make the escapement and get this thing ticking…soon…eventually. Patience.
