Manufacturing and Designing of wooden clock
It's always interesting to read about the people who make all sorts of unusual things. Sometimes these stories are most incentive to collect something like that, and sometimes they just voskhischaeshsya, because you know - is most unlikely to get done. It was about this yourself model I want to tell, or rather about one of his classes - the design and manufacturing of wooden clock. In the photo he is. Call him Andrew, surname Kuznetsov.
Everything you need is in the garage.
It all starts with the design of hours - calculation of the trigger mechanism, gearbox and all other parts, whose names I do not know.
A bit closer, if someone wants to enjoy the interface, or read the name of the program. For those who failed to report all done in Solid Works.

This is one of the designs am and they are all different, for example such.
The watch is designed, it is time to cut out parts. Saw this milling machine is controlled from a computer that emulates the CNC (I hope nothing is messed up.)
To do this, right parts of the company on the list.
And transferred to a computer that is connected to another PC that emulates the CNC.
This will create the file movement cutters and sent to the PC-CAM.
Secured fanerku.
Exhibited the starting point.
And forward. Headphones here is not for beauty - the noise from the machine, as during takeoff.
Helps him in this vacuum, by the way, also homemade. In the photo he left, if that.
Inner loops are cut first, then external and Circuits ready.
All napilit and turned around a set: the frame, all sorts of gear, collapsible pendulum, arrows, decorative items.
And this is the main wheel (do not know how on scientific name). It is wound with thread load, causing it spinning. It, in turn, vraschet shaft on which is mounted a minute hand. Hourly rotates through retardant gear. Something like this.
Everything is ready for assembly.

First hung motor wheel with gear reducer.
All shafts with bearings. By reducing the friction of all the details required less load weights for the operation of the mechanism.
Then mounted gear trigger. Together with the anchor they convert the rotational motion of the main wheel in a "step", counting seconds.
Checking. Everything is spinning and spinning.
Anchor is placed. Now spin the wheel will not work.

The mechanism of assembly. In the long pin is the minute hand. Below - the factory, there is inserted key and lifts a weight. At the top of the shaft for mounting decelerating gear clockwise.
Check the progress. The kettlebell is lowered anchor walks, spinning gears. Beauty.
Left all varnish, hang arrows, numbers, the weight and get something like this.
