The first piece of the new clock is finished!
I started the fabrication of this clock with what might be the most detailed and time consuming component. This is the center gear, which as the name suggests will be squarely in the center of the clock, right behind the hands. It took about three weeks to sculpt, which is by far the most time I’ve ever spent on one gear. The human eye loves repetition, so I decided to mirror the design of the clock right in the spokes of the gear.
I’ve started working on the 2nd gear, which will be ticking alongside this one. It’s a little smaller and thinner, but will have the same design.
