Absolutely spectacular, Ronnie. You did a truly beautiful job creating your Number Six. Magnificent! Congratulations. Clayton
Thanks!
Mr. Boyer, you are very gifted. You are one of the few numbered with Goodrich, Becket, and even Harrison (I mean that sincerely) who have inspired me to design my own clocks. I certainly don't mean to steal any thunder from Ronald and his MAGNIFICENT WORK!
Thank you both for even more inspiration. Like Newton said, "I stand on the shoulders of giants" - you two ... thanks again!
@@Induku what woodworking school do you recommend for me to attend to learn how to make wooden clocks and watches? Do you offer classes?
@@oceanblue4750 Unfortunately I do not have any information on where to formally learn woodworking or which schools to attend. I mostly learned from looking at woodworking videos on RUclips. At the bottom of this page there is a list of RUclipsrs that helped me with ideas and tips (indukudesign.com/video-gallery/).
Great video!
If anyone is interested I analyze a similar clock and show with detailed computation how it works, and how clocks can be designed to tick at the correct pace.
I also bring a short discussion about the nature of time. Enjoy:

'Stop to enjoy progress' one of the most important steps so many of us forget.
I really like this comment and will add one of these steps in all of my videos in the future :)
TOTALLY ! Progress will bring us to our END ! We should STOP to enjoy it ! Bruders, together, REVOLUTION !!
One minute I’m living my life and the next, RUclips has me contemplating a career in clock making and craft fairs.
5 years ago I worked in an office. A few RUclips videos later and now I design and make a variety of wooden models (I bought the plans for this clock and did not design it). Just do it.
@@Induku where can I buy this plan?
beautiful video. i appreciate all the captions, too.
I love how you pause to enjoy the process
Absolutely beautiful!! Brought tears to my eyes !
it is a Awesome work. I saw a similar clock in Hong Kong. It is made with all wood, no metal bearing, screw, shift or etc. We have very advance mechanical watch in the world. I think old art thing should be with all old material.
You are an inspiration, Mr. Nelson! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks :)
Incredible craftsmanship! That will make an amazing family heirloom for generations to come. Thank you for sharing!
This is amazing clock
That a beautiful craftsman
Thank you
the single MOST BEAUTIFUL project i have seen so far.!!!!
Thank you for the nice comment.
@@Induku no problem:)your work is lovely.please post more videos if possible!
@@pixiechick4367 I am currently working on making chess pieces for the chess board that I made a while ago and will post it once it is done. Unfortunately making 32 pieces takes ages (at this stage I have 17 done!) - but I think the whole set will be nice and will definitely have a video of the process.
@@Induku ok cool!ill be on lookout!!thx!!
Family Heirloom, eh? Awesome! So elegant and classy!
The sheer effort you put in is amazing
That was incredible and beautiful, next time please show how you built that TV :)
красавчик, что тут можно сказать. Сразу видно что руки из правильного места растут... Молодец!
Thats some patience and precision you have
No doubt the coolest thing on RUclips. I wish I had the tools and the time.
Thanks. This is the coolest comment I got the whole month :)
It is refreshing to see handmade construction. A friend gave me a book about making wooden clocks. Im very excited to try my hand and create something wonderful for my family. We need a clock. Wish me luck:) Looking forward to more of your videos
Good luck! There are much easier ways to get a clock if you need one than to build a wooden clock - but none of these methods are as satisfying.
I totally agree:)
Great Video. Thanks for uploading it.
Absolutely AMAZING work. Loved this video and your work! Thank you for sharing!
its not my video but thank you and youre welcome!
Thanks! You have set right my nerves.
Great job
This is so beautiful, I love it!!!!

Someday.. I want to be like you, making clocks! Keep up the good work! :D
Wow... What a talent 🙏👍🙏
Super belle cette pendule!
I bought your orrery kit. My son learned about orbits at 2 1/2 years old. Thanks!
Excellent video, Ronald!
Thank you :)
Master craftmanship!!! Wery nice, in deed!!!
Very beautiful clockwork i like this work fantastic thank you very much
Beautiful wonderful
Nice, I'm thinking of making one of these on my 3D printer.
Amazing... So beautiful done😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for this video. What a wonderful achievement! Meticulous in its creation...WOW!
Brilliant work! Hats off you man.
Волшебник!
Very beautiful
Super work super job
Hi Ronald...such a great art... awesome..!!!
Can u plz share the gear details and calculation... Or can u just make a video of it... It will be great to understand...!
I love wooden clocks, but i get crazy from a normal ones ticking already. This would probably make me jump of a building😂
Really Nice
Its great to see someone else that actually uses tools instead of lasers. I dont understand why they think assembling a puzzle their computer made as being skillful.
It is nice to use tools but a laser is also a nice tool to use when making things. Whatever makes you happy when desining and making things are cool.
Magnifico! 👏🏼 I want that!
This is incredible. Amazing job
What a passion man! I am fascinated by clock mechanisms but your skill in building such pieces of engeneering just blow my mind. I notice that you have only 5k subscribers, thats normal, the people that can understund art engeneering are not too many . Just go ahead .
Thanks, I will continue to make stuff :)
Великолепная работа.
Great. It is an art piece.
Outstanding!
This is amazing! was going to subscribe and realized that I already was a subscriber! 😅
Amazing
Good job! I like this video.i have a question ,to have an accurate time keeping how calculate the length of pendulum ,and how to calculate the weight ,i think when we put too much weight the clock runs bad
Clayton Boyer designed this clock and has a lot of information on calculating the various things that make it work. Here is a few answers for the some questions:www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/frequentquestions.htm. And here is a bit more on how to design the pendulum and calculate the length: wikipedia.org/wiki/Seconds_pendulum
P E R F E C T
Which is the precision of the clock? In + - seconds / month.
I wind it every day and adjust it. It is quite accurate and out by a few seconds. The pendulum can be adjusted to increase the accuracy.
Very nice!
What a beautiful piece of workmanship, I have made one as well, but I have had trouble making mine run, everything seems to be smooth, but still no success any advice
Clyaton Boyer has a whole checklist of things that might help to fix the problem in the section "Why doesn’t my clock run? " on this page: www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/frequentquestions.htm I hope this helps!
Is there anyway I could visit with you? Possibly a website or some other way. I live in northern utah
Magnigicent! Thank you for sharing this. Would that i had the woodworking skills and the tools to do this fine mastery. A kit with laser cut parts of this clock's mechanism would be the only way for me :-(
انتبه الى عدد الاسنان. عجلة الدقائق يجب أن تكون 64 سن وهو وضع فقط 62 سن. قمت بالحساب ووجدت الكارتة 😃😅😅
Here are the plans for the clock then!

Nice clock bro
Thanks dude.
привет , нет ли файлов в dfx ? пожалуйста , поделитесь прямой сылкой . также другими проектами. спасибо
Awesome!
Is it %100 accurate. Do you need to do something for fixing and making it accurate. Without any battery or something like this. How it works.
So incredible. But I really want to make one. How to make it??? 😞
It's a great work. I'm also carpenter. Please can you give me that measurement?
Great clock in deed. However my wife complained the tick-tack noise. My parents had a grandfather clock which was similar noisy. After few days nobody was able to hear ist. After a while, the brain filters the noise.
How accurate is the clock (if it could run forever how long till noon is clearly incorrect)? How long can it stay active without rewinding
It runs just over 24 hours on a single wind and is quite accurate over this period. I wind it every morning which means stopping it for a few moments and then adjust the hands slightly once done.
I made one of these a few years back and I managed to keep it running for around nine minutes before the pendulum stopped. I tried sanding the anchor teeth and the escape wheel teeth with sealer, to reduce friction but nothing really worked. My grandad got bored of be using his workshop for that project so now it just sits in the living room as an ornamental clock
Is your weight heavy enough?
@@Richardros18 to be totally honest, I haven’t actually weighed it, it’s an iron cylinder about 25cm long by 6cm wide. I’d estimate at about 7kg but without weighing I can’t be sure. Would you recommend a weight?
@@t.purkess9682 I think that should be heavy enough, might be not a proper alignment of the axis creating to much friction but hard to tell
I have recently assembled a wooden gear clock (one of those laser cut kits) and can may be advise you a bit better now (my previous advise was based on my watch making experience). Firstly you need to make sure that the gearwork runs freely (which you can check when you remove the anchor teeth). If that's the case than you need to make sure that the points of contact of both the anchor wheel and escape wheel are very smoothly sanded and than apply some wax on the anchor teeth and the escape wheel teeth as well.
LOVELY
GREAT
Hello! It has become an amazing watch structure. he has an unconscious great patience to work it out. You have a separate machine for each. A complete precise Machine park. all its parts are amazing, gears are made of wood and shafts are made of metal. How much would you make such a watch for me? at the end of the video what is the title of the music and the name of the artist. Wonderful music track.
Marvelous !
Nicely done sir! You have inspired me to take on a project like this. Could you advise me as to where I would be able to get plans like this. Thank you for your help in advance.

Hola Ronald. Excelente . donde puedo conseguir los planos
It's so beautiful I really want to make it. Can you give me the details of this?
The plans are available here: lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/Claytonsite1.htm
How much would one of these handmade clocks cost? I am not interested in buying i just wanna know how u would price yours. Answer when u can please
where were you find sizes for for gears? Nice video!
Great awesome work! Why you dont use laser for the gears ? because it burn the edges ?
Thanks :) There were several reasons why I did not use the laser for the gears. First was that I started this project almost 4 yeas ago, long before I got a laser. I had 3 gears cut but stopped until about a month ago. I wanted to finish the project in the same way as I started it by cutting the gears by hand (I did however trace them by laser). The second reason is that the wood is 6mm which is almost too thick and 12mm which is definitely too thick to cut through (I could have used 3 and 4 mm and glued pieces together but this seemed inelegant). Another reason is that the burnt edges might be a bit too sticky (there is always a slight residue). To remove it would have been a lot of work - and I think it would have taken more time than just cutting the gears (if I had a small belt sander it might have worked - it certainly would have helped during this project in any case). I am however happy that I did finish the gears by cutting it by hand.
@@Induku Thanks for the answer, i only worked with industrial laser cutters, 10-15 mm plywood is easy to cut with industrial cutters, but the burnt edges are still problem. Other way if cutted with cnc router. I like your quality works.
My answer for me is I made it, not a computer controlled laser. The clock is 400 year old technology, not state of the art 2000's. I just started on this clock, having made a different clock 19 years ago of a much different design.
It run without power? Nice very nice
Every day when I wind it I use my muscle power to lift the weight thereby capturing it (potential energy). The clock runs from this the rest of the day. It does not use electrical energy as most other clock in our house does.
Amazing! Thanks for sharing. l want to buy the plan and make one, too.
Does the clock show the time correctly? l mean the accuracy of the clock.
And the last; Is it running too loud? 😅
It keeps time quite well, but read this page by Clayton where he also discuss accuracy (www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/frequentquestions.html). It is not very loud but I would not recommend placing it in the bedroom.
@@Induku thanks for answer.
I'll look into the discussion in the link.🤝
holy crap!!! Thats amazing. How long did that take you to build? Looks very time consuming. At least if you have a wheel or escapement wear out you can build a replacement.
I spent around 3 weeks making this clock but I started the process a few years earlier and did not work on it for a long time.
@@Induku cool, being made from wood if you were to let it run constantly, how long would it last before it wears out.
@@kwacz I am not sure it will happen in my lifetime. There are wooden clocks that are quite old and using modern composite woods, like plywood, should keep it running for many years or even decades to come.
Boas noite! Amigo querido tudo bem? Como posso adquirir este modelo para montagem em casa? Algum site de venda?? Preciso
What's the accuracy? It's a nice looking pendulum assembly
It is quite accurate over a 24 hour period. I usually check it when winding each day but do not really adjust it that often.
Superb...excellent..
U will adjust time daily??
Шикарно, а где можно скачать файлы. Хотелось бы с сыном такие сделать.
Ở VN có ai bán không nhỉ. ? Minnf rất thích mấy mẫu này.
Wow! That was on another level!Really enjoyed watching 😊
I like
Do you sell this kind of clock? I like it!
You can buy it on Amazon. It is made of plastic and metal. I have the exact same clock in black color. You have 2 choices of colors, black or gray.
Muito boa noite! É realmente muito muito lindo esse relógio 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 e como faço para adquirir um igual? Vocês poderiam me apresentar algum site de compra por gentileza? Agradecido estarei!
I just binged watched Clickspring building his over this last weekend... and then this pops up... outstanding! You have inspired me to make my own! I am curious though... after two years of use, how accurate is it?
I is still as accurate as two years ago. It does sometimes stop completely depending on the humidity. I think if I give it a service this will sole the problem and make it run better.
Nice!
Сколько времени пройдёт, перед тем, как механизм придёт в негодность?
Belo trabalho, parabéns!
Beauty
Absolutely Beautyful dear. I want to buy some one clock . How to can buy clock....?
The plans are available here: www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/Claytonsite1.htm
@@Induku Thanks dear
Can I buy plans for the #6. That is the clock I want to make!
Sure! I bought my plans here: www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/Claytonsite1.htm
Awesome😍🔥👍
I cannot find exactly this clock in your shop for your plans ? Which name is it please ? Thanks Markus
I do not sell the plans but it is avaliable here: www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/Claytonsite1.htm
Superb
I’m guessing that tiny lathe is sold for turning pens? It seems super handy! Great work.
Awsome
Ide ini sabgat bagus. Sayangnya tidak di perlihatkan cara mendesain dan mengukur gear agar bisa bersesuaian perputaran jarum jam.😔😔😔 Sayang sekali
