    There was a website long ago called Gary's Wooden Clocks. It said that since clocks only rotate in one direction, only one surface of each gear tooth actually matters.
    Make the back of the pigeon head follow an accurate gear tooth profile. The other gear tooth surface can contain the pigeon's beak. The gear should operate as accurately as a traditional involute gear in one direction. You have to flip over all the gears that rotate counter-clockwise.

    • @Meeptome
      @Meeptome 23 дня назад +4

      That was my first thought - follow an involute pattern only on meshing surfaces

    • @Zer0ji
      @Zer0ji 22 дня назад +31

      To keep the spirit of the clock, the pigeon should be on the meshing face, and the perfectly fine gear surface should stay unused!

    • @stevesclocks
      @stevesclocks 22 дня назад +1

      @@Zer0ji Sure, you could get it to work with the beak on the meshing face, but it won't be as efficient. The power transfer will vary depending on the position. Drive weight will need to be increased or runtime reduced for the clock to continue running through the weak phases.
      Running the pigeons backwards will have maximum efficiency through the complete rotation, so runtime can be increased.

    Met Uri at Maker Central last weekend. My meds were kicking my brains out my ears and I just gushed about loving his work and how it made me use more brass. He asked what projects, and for some reason I just stared and said "knives" in an unintentionally sinister moment of brain-fog (I do make other things I swear!). I went to leave before Uri called for security, but he stopped me and handed me a handmade paper postcard with a drawing of a pigeon he made. Everything Uri does is part of a wonderfully absurd world, and this clock is a perfect example of that.

    I love how the numbers are organized counterclockwise where as the hand goes clockwise, also only goes up to 10

    The motion of that pigeon gear made me think of the piegon head movement when they walk. Love it!

    I sware i saw clock mechanism and thought i was going to see you handcraft a clock. Didnt even think twice about it. I know how involved clock mechanisms are. The tiny details of every gear moving in harmony. This is how highly i think of your skill as a maker. This was amazing too. Its always a treat to see you in action and fun too.

    On a heavy clock mechanism like this I often thought it would be interesting to add a small flywheel at a very high RPM from the clock tick containing magnets for a small generator.
    I would imagine that it would over a single drop potentially charge a flashlight or maybe your phone 5%.
