Epicyclic Gear Clock
Just finished making the epicyclic gear clock. I really think this pawl system would fix the SP7 clock. The second hand would not be able to jerk back and this ratchet and pawls are completely silent! As much as I do like the tic tocs, after a while they get to you especially when you have five or 10 clocks in the same room lol.... I'm going to see if I can create this pawl system for the SP7. I also want to create a base for this clock to have the coil and batteries and pendulum driver board out of sight.

Hi kicksnj2,
What happens when the battery voltage starts to decrease and the pendulum amplitude decreases. Do the pawls still work???
This is one of the things that I struggled with in the SP7.
