Hey Norm, I was having a problem with my own clock I just finished, but I think our problems might be similar.
My minute hand wasn't moving at all, because I think that the spring that I used for the gear 5 assembly is too soft, and therefore the front 2 gears move independently.
To troubleshoot it I lined them up, and a few minutes later the inner one (I think it's called gear 5 30) moved, but the one in front of it stayed at the same spot.
Yours might be slipping slightly, losing a few minutes every day.
A simple thing to do is I guess just tape them together and see if it still does that. Just make sure not to try and set the clock when they are taped together, because you might break something!
