This is a pendulum clock I made as a fun project. The ticking mechanism is called an escapement, and is often used in other clock mechanisms. Basically, you need to attach a weight to the back side of the wheel. This wheel then pushes on the pendulum, causing it to swing like in a grandfather clock.
This clock is designed to use 2x 608 size skateboard bearings. Everything else is 3d printed, and tolerances to fit the bearings are already built in. STL Files are in mm.
You should get something heavy and glue or tie it to the wheel. Wind it around, and it should start ticking. Anything heavy should do- I used a metal keychain.
You may want to use some glue to permanently adhere the pieces- I used hot glue and it works fine.
Hope you guys enjoy, remember to like and post your make!
