Goodbye ratchet springs

Steve,

I absolutely love your clock designs & have had a great time printing & assembling mine (Large Moon Phase). I'm working on a second one for a gift & decided to replace the metal springs in the ratchet with print in place springs on the clock. Three less pens I have to destroy for their springs. ;) Anyhow I thought I'd share in case you'd be interested in removing some springs from your fantastic design.

Kindest regards,

T.J.

Beautiful clock! Glad to hear the springs are working for you. I have them in 2 clocks & have been running them for quite a while now without any problems.... yet. :)


Wall Clock Stabilizer

When winding my clock, it wants to slide the entire frame back and forth on the wall. I made a stabilizer that screws into the wall on either size of the standoffs to hold it in place. It's adjustable and works great. Easy to design and print so feel free to make them.

A Smaller Version of the moon phase clock

The moon phase clock seems very large and would take up quite a bit of filament and wall space. Maybe a smaller design?
