Hoping To Attempt A Clock Project

Drafty · Nov 24, 2015

Hi all, has anyone made a mechanical clock named " Dark Lady" from Brians Workshop site, my interest
in this clock is that it is said to be simple to build according to Brian and details are in PDF format.

Brian is a member here, so I don't think you could go wrong tackling it. He's around to advise and help out. Seems there is a build thread on it here too.

Hi Ivan what do you want to know
Brian.

Hi Brian
I just need to know the complexity of the build. My machinery is basic, a micro lathe (Sieg C1)
a Dremel and bench drill. I had a look at the thread that Tony referred to and saw your
build timeline and decided and can do it too, except for gearing as my lathe does not have
an 80T gear (90, 76 & 72). My order for the PDF'S will be today (Oz time)
Cheers Ivan
