Would that not be plagiarism Neil? the idea is direct from Brian Hogger's comercial plans so I cannot take any credit. All I have done is modified it to use the available materials in my scrap box.

Today I made most of the milling spindle for cutting the wheels, just need to find a small motor now, possibly a £8 'white box' B&Q drill ? |

I hear you John, I'm using this project to learn how to cut better gears before I start making a sidereal clock. |

Today I made a new pendulum suspension for an old 8 day mantle clock (after 20 odd years I think I've finally got it), then started repairing an old steam engine for a mate. Edited By john carruthers on 21/04/2016 17:44:31 |

The magnetic sensor on a private carpark near me will trigger if you get the engine over, or near, the sensor from the 'outside'. |

Thread: First clock suggestions |
08/04/2016 16:28:40 |
I have never made a time piece in my life but would like to combine my other hobby of astronomy with metalworking and make a mechanical sidereal clock. Is it as simple as making the hour hand go round once/24 hours instead of twice? (and timing it to the sidereal day) or am I kidding myself? |
Thread: Lady Stephanie |

Yes, I've seen some with a simple link, I was just sticking to the drawing this being my first 'real' engine. I know what you mean about the polish, I have a thing for brass and wood. |
